"Her Spirits were naturally good, and not easily depressed, and she possessed such a fund of vivacity and good humour as could only be damped by some very serious vexation.- Besides these antidotes against every disappointment, and consolations under them, she had another, which afforded her constant relief in all her misfortunes, and that was a fine shady Bower, the work of her own infantine Labours..." ~from Jane Austen's Catherine, or the Bower

Heaven's War
This graphic novel, Heaven's War, is written by Micah Harris and illustrated by Michael Gaydos, and is very Charles Williams-ian. The story's characters include the Inklings, J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, and Charles Williams. If you are hoping for fuzzy talking beavers of Narnia, this is not for you. If, however, you are weird enough to be a Charles Williams fan (as I am), you will not be disappointed by the angelic battles and travels through space and time. The endnotes are very helpful for understanding the history behind the story (for me, at least). Overall, a really cool idea.
