Delicate Creatures: A Most Uncommon Fairy Tale

Within the walls of a castle, tiny creatures live with the Owners–who can never know they exist. But the timeless routine ends when the castle’s “princess” is imprisoned. One creature risks all to help her escape the suffering.

Delicate Creatures is a self-contained fantasy story that was released as a hardback in January, 2002. It was written by J. Michael Straczynski, illustrated by Michael Zulli, colored by Steve Firchow.

A modern fable complete with a beautiful castle and extraordinary characters. Magical illustrations by Zulli and Firchow, written by Straczynski, the creator of Rising Stars and Midnight Nation. Very nicely illustrated in the style of a contemporary children’s book with full color drawings on every page, plus six pages of character studies by Zulli.
