Book Overview

Still reeling from the announcement that Jareth has handed over control of the Labyrinth to Toby, the Goblin Kingdom is in an uproar. Panjan Spittledrum, the Goblin Mayor, had assumed that he would be Jareth's successor, as had the coldly beautiful Mizumi, Queen of the Moraine Kingdom. Both vow to assist Toby in his preparation for assuming the Goblin throne, but can such a power-hungry pair be trusted?

Return to Labyrinth Volume 2 (v.2)

My daughter has been waiting to read this book for months since she first heard about it. When she finally got it, she read it over and over. I used to love to watch the movie and introduced it to her and it has become her all time favorite. She is always collecting whatever she can that has anything to do with the movie. She is anxiously waiting for the third volume now. This book is a must have for Labyrinth addicts!

Cant wait!

The plot thickens in volume two. As more questions are being answered, new ones keep popping up. The artwork is beautiful. The end of the book leaves you with a huge cliffhanger. I've been a labyrinth fan since i was a child and i have been a manga fan since junior high. Combining my fav movie of all time with the manga style was the best idea ever! I hope they keep em coming. If you are a labyrinth fan you can't go wrong with these books.

Pretty Good

***May contain spoiled information!***** I thought Volumn 2 is more interesting that Volumn 1. You will learn that Jareth is really in love with Sarah and that he would do anything to have her back. Toby, now a prince and future King is trying his best to fit in while leaving his friends behind and frustrated. In the end of the volumn, Jareth finally returns to the human world, seeking out his "beloved!" I won't say more. Just buy the book and enjoy it!

Thank goodness it got better!

I was pleasantly surprised by Volume 2 of "Return to the Labyrinth". While the cover art is still misleading, having been done by an entirely different artist than the real illustrator of the story, the general quality of the art seems to have improved. Toby looks dashing, the goblins cute or quirky, Jareth regal, and Sarah once again beautiful (no longer rough and ragged). The art still isn't a 10/10. A point in the story one character is supposed to look just like Sarah. You wouldn't know this without the other characters informing you of the remarkable resemblance. Fans of Sarah and Jareth will be happy to know that these characters do make a return. Volume 1 made some of us worry that these characters we picked up the manga for wouldn't be returning much and we would be forced to find a love for Toby and his crew or find a new story to follow. The storyline comes together with character growth and interesting back story. Amusing jokes are hidden in the story to tie the manga to the original film. Have fun finding such dialogue goodies as: "You remind me of the babe." "What babe?" As well as a music box that plays "As the World Falls Down". A last treat is the fanart, displayed at the end of the volume, done by other manga artists.

Pleasently surprised!

After reading the first volume, I was slightly disappointed with a few things, but thought it was okay. The second volume was nothing short of amazing! The art doesn't looked like it was rushed and I like how Jareth and Sarah now look. Sarah looks beautiful, and Jareth now looks more like his royal self. I hope the next cover will have them both. I love with what was done with Moppet, as she is now a more developed character. It'll be interesting to find out why she looks so much like Sarah. Also, she has more a backbone, so it's nice to see her be a much stronger person than she was before. It seems that after Jareth lost to Sarah, he was very bitter, yet he still wanted her to be a Queen. That, combined with the finale scene, and the prophecy will lead things to an intrusting conclusion. Moppet's discovery makes it very clear that if Sarah had lost, Jareth had already had her room prepared. No to mention the music box she finds. Still, why wouldn't Jareth have had the room destroyed? He must've saved it for possible future use. Still, with what Drumlin pulled, that room has been destroyed and Jareth isn't around to answer any questions. Without his magic, Jareth seems to have trouble going through the Labyrinth. It was funny to see him crawl like a hamster though a tunnel. Spittledrum had earned his name. It I doubt he'll ever find the respect he wants when someone taped a "kick me" sign on his back. Sarah's reaction to seeing Jareth will be interesting. Will she faint, or will her lack of people food make her somewhat grouchy ? Her cat doesn't seem to like Jareth either. No to mention how will she react when she finds out that her brother has become the Goblin King ? Also, it's noted that this will be a four part series, not three. Get this book. You will want to own the entire series.
