Wen lives with her grandmother in a land of fairy tales. She has never seen the world outside her home and the magical barrier that protects them.

One day, a mysterious prince collapses just beyond the barrier and Wen crosses over it to help him. In the confusion, a strange boy and his flock of ravens descend and abduct Wen’s grandmother. Wen decides to travel with her newfound friend, Prince Corliss, and his trusty companion Theo the swallow, on a quest to save her grandmother.

Along the way, she discovers that the outside world isn’t as magical as she once thought, and danger lurks around every corner. But with the help of her friends, she is determined to unravel the mystery of the boy with the ravens, and more importantly, the mystery of her own past.

this is the perfect introduction to the story and i love how incredibly wholesome this story feels. we start off somewhat similarly to the story of Rapunzel (except for more lighthearted) with a girl who dreams of venturing out to the real world and keeps her curious mind fed with books. she’s stuck in her little home with her grandmother who won’t tell her why she can’t leave. then, one day, a blue light leads her to a cursed boy… and the whole adventure starts from there.

it is so cute and i couldn’t stop reading!!! the artstyle kind of reminds of me of chibi and i know i’ve already said this but i just can’t explain how cute it is. this is a really light, quick, and simple read that definitely made me feel satisfied and happy by the end of it.

you can find the full story on webtoon and i definitely recommend reading it, especially if you want to quickly raise your number of books read. i can see myself finishing the whole story in the future but for now, i’ll stop at volume one (covers episodes 1-17). if you like an adorable and sweet story with some adventure, this one’s definitely for you!

I really enjoy anything to do with fairy tales. Especially when it’s playing on an already existing world and expanding on it. While the world of Raven Saga is, for the most part, a new exciting one, we’ve already met a couple familiar faces. Well, I think we have. They didn’t say their names, so I’m not sure if Mother Goose, the Pied Piper and Peter Pan are the people we met, but they did look a lot like them. So I’m assuming that at some point we’ll be getting a lot of others as well.

We begin our story with a mystery. Wen has been kept, by her grandmother, away from the world. She dreams of one day seeing the ocean and exploring all the sights she’s only read about in books. But when a mysterious boy (Corliss) and his talking bird show up, she steps out of her safe haven to help them. This triggers a collapse of the force field around their home that was keeping all danger out (and her in).

When her grandmother is kidnapped, the three of them set out on a journey to discover why she’s been locked away and where they can find her. But one mystery definitely turns into two, which turns into more and we have an adventure story that keeps you guessing about every single person they meet and what could be just around the corner.

This was a fun WebToon that, while I’ve never heard of it up until now, will keep me coming back until I finish it. I decided to look up which ones were getting printed by WebToons Unscrolled in the near future so that I can discover new stories to fall in love with. It worked!

Raven Sage is for fans of Once Upon a Time, Studio Ghibli, and Disney movies. It’s an adventure mystery for people of all ages and a quick read.

4.0 / 5.0 stars

this was such a delightful and cute read! i loved the art and illustration style so much and i found the character design beautiful.

volume 1 was such a captivating introduction to this series and i’m already so, so curious about how fairy tales are interwoven into this series, especially everything related to development of the world building, the plot and how the magical elements in this world work, and the character arcs—all of it is just getting started in this volume.

i adored wen, grandma clarimonde, corliss, and theo so much and i just want to protect them and keep them out of harm’s way throughout their journey. the ending to this volume was abrupt, but nevertheless it still left me hooked and looking forward to the next volume.

Thank you to the publisher for providing me with a digital arc in exchange for an honest review.

4.5 stars!

URGH, this was so cute! I’m in love already. The characters are so cute I just wanna squish them. No but truly I’m already so invested in the adventure of these characters, who are just immediately so lovable.

Also, I love a fairytale type story, and I’m such a fan of the way this story is already seamlessly weaving in classic fairytale ideas and references. But in like a new way that doesn’t at all feel like a copy paste of the classic stories. Can’t wait to see how this world will build.

And the art. Can’t have a phenomenal graphic novel without stunning art – and this art is perfect. So pretty, so cute, so whimsical.

To summerise: already in love, I need more!

Thank you Wattpad WEBTOON Book Group and NetGalley for providing me an early copy of this in return for an honest review!

An adorable graphic novel! The main characters, Wen, Corliss and Theo, are so sweet and you really route for them from the get-go. There’s a great set up of mystery which keeps the reader intrigued. I flew through this story, especially towards the end of volume one!! Going to run to WEBTOON to see what happens next 🏃‍♀️

This is suitable for all ages! I love a fairytale story, this had elements of the originals while being its own concept which I enjoyed.

My one thing is I was sometimes unsure whether I was reading left to right or up to down. The formatting may have been my own issue/misterpretation however 😅

Overall 5/5 ⭐️

Thank you to Webtoon Unscrolled and NetGalley for a eARC of this book. All opinions remain my own.

Raven Saga is the story of a story named Wen, who is cared for by her grandmother. Wen is forbidden to go beyond the barrier of her home for undisclosed reasons (but her grandmother promises to tell her someday). One day Wen encounters a mysterious boy who has fallen unconscious right out the barrier. She goes to help him, but by doing so she breaks the barrier spell. After the barrier falls, a villainous sorcerer kidnaps Wen's grandmother for her magic. Wen's grandmother tells her to find the Morning Star to get answers about the reasons why Wen was protected. Wen also finds out the boy is named Corliss and he's inflicted with a curse: to give anyone anything they ask of him, even the clothes off his back. Together with Corliss's bird companion Theo, they journey to find the Morning Star and rescue Wen's grandmother.

I love the art style, it conveys the fairy tale atmosphere perfectly. However I'm left frustrated by the plot. There's an intriguing premise but it's too fast paced and we get many more questions than answers. However I'm still planning to read the next volumes.

Actual rating: 3.5 stars, rounded down

[harmony · Rating 3 out of 5]

Full of beautiful illustrations, this felt so whimsical and cute. The plot sort of reminds me of tangled with how Wen has been kept away from the outside world and she's only just now getting to experience it and discover all the things she's missed out on. The ending was a bit abrupt but overall this was a nice light read.

5 Stars⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This is such a cute, whimsical comic. I love the art style. It’s adorable! I love how it is an original story, but incorporates aspects of well known fairytales.

Wen lives in this adorable, cozy, little farm with her grandmother. She loves to read and hang out with the animals. She dreams of seeing the world beyond their home, but her grandmother is constantly telling her it’s not safe for her to leave. One day everything changes when she meets a boy and his talking bird. They must embark on an adventure together to save her grandmother.

I look forward to seeing what happens in the next volume😊

This was such a cute and delightful read! I love everything fairytale related so it’s no surprise that I loved this. It was such a nice blend of familiar tales with a new spin on them and it was done so well. I absolutely fell in love with the characters and I can’t wait to continue the series.

Thank you to the publisher for a gifted copy of the book.

[Tonja Drecker · Rating 5 out of 5]

With the atmosphere of pure, simple fun, these pages hint at familiar tales while weaving a completely new story of its own.

Wen has lived with her grandmother as long as she can remember on the small piece of land in a clearing in the forest. She enjoys her life and gets along with the animals very well, and Grandma makes sure to bring her gifts and lots of books when venturing into town. There's only one thing Wen isn't totally happy with; their land is spelled and protected, meaning she's not allowed to step beyond the rock border. Although she dreams of one day seeing the world beyond, she also knows her grandmother only has her best interests at heart. When an odd light zooms in from the outside, it beckons to Wen in a way she can't ignore, and before she knows it, she's beyond the border and into the forest. Here, she discovers an injured prince with a flower insignia on his ring. While her grandmother is very upset, the old woman reveals that she's been waiting for a prophesied flower to appear, and this might be exactly it. Just as her grandmother is about to reveal the truth about Wen's past, a boy with crows attacks and steals the grandmother away. But before she completely disappears, she's able to tell Wen to find a certain individual and makes the prince promise to protect Wen until this task is complete. But that's going to be easier said than done.

Wen is everything a fairy tale heroine should be: innocent, friendly, and very kind. Her isolation has left her with a naive purity, which makes her enjoyable to follow and root for, especially since she's not completely stupid. She might have a lot to learn, but she's quick to realize mistakes and knows when to stand her ground. It will be fun to see what happens to her in this series, since there is quite a bit of room for character growth. With the prince, who is facing an odd curse, and other characters, such as the Pied Piper and Jack, the one who defeated the giant at the top of the bean stalk, there are all sorts of surprises. Not everyone is kind, and many characters are even gray.

The graphics carry a hint of light, bubbliness. Still, the needed tension and emotions come across clearly to keep the tale from growing too sweet or simple. The text slides right along to keep everything flowing. It's a nice balance between the two and keeps boredom away. While there are moments of tension and hints of darker elements, this story holds gentle humor and innocence close to ensure a light fun the entire way through. And this fits very well to the characters and plot.

I'm really looking foward to seeing where this one goes next because Wen has quite the adventure before her

This volume collects episodes 1 to 17 of the enchanting WEBTOON comic Raven Saga.

Wen lives in a cottage in a forest with her grandmother, She's never been outside the property line. Never met anyone in the near by village. Wen likes to read books her grandmother brings back to the cottage after she goes to the village. She dreams of far off places she reads in her books, and to finally hear the ocean.

One day, a unknown prince falls just outside the barrier and Wen crosses over to help him. This breaks the barrier of magic keeping her safe. In the confusion a flock of ravens and their commander a mysterious boy, capture Wens grandmother. Wen and her new friend decide to travel together to unlock the mystery of the forest, her past and what her future has to hold.

On their journey the Price and Wen don't yet know, is they are both more connected than they could have ever thought.

This story already has me invested. It spends some time giving you background info and introductions on the main characters as well as a bit of info on where the plot may be going. Even though its the first volume it still drew me in. The art is lovely and the color pallets works fabulously.

You can definitely see that the main characters are going to have a deep connection and that their own stories are tied together. This very much has an old school fairytale feel. Magic, Curses, Far off castles, and adventures to be had. I'm super excited for volume two.

Volume one is family friendly and appropriate for middle grade readers and above.

Wen lives in a little cottage deep in the forest with her grandmother Monde. For Wen though it's also a prison, her grandmother refuses to allow her to leave and has even put up a magical barrier to keep her their. Wen knows its for her safety but since her grandmother won't tell her why Wen is less and less willing to follow the rules. One afternoon a bright light envelopes her and while she doesn't understand why she knows she has to follow it, without even thinking she crosses the magical barrier where the light leads her to a young man sleeping half naked in the forest! Fearing he's injured she brings him back to the cottage not knowing she's taken the first step in her own grand adventure!

I love stories like this! Wen, Corliss, and Theo (Corliss's friend who is a talking bird) get to meet up with all sorts of easily recognizable fairy tale characters who so far are not as endearing as we remember them to be. The Pied Piper sells them out to Jack the Giant Killer who may or may not traffic in humans. I think what I liked about these existing characters being a little twisted is it really allows Wen and Corliss to stand out as the true MCs of their story. Well-known characters may be galavanting across the pages but their stories, at least so far aren't overpowering Wen and Corliss's.

This was honestly just an adorable fairy tale and I am definitely going to be continuing this series!

As always thanks the NetGalley and Webtoon Book Group for the eArc!

[Hannah Rowan · Rating 4 out of 5]

A nice introduction to a new fantasy graphic novel series! Since this was the first volume, we mostly spent our time being introduced to the world and characters. The art style is very charming. You can definitely tell that the adventure is just getting started, as most of the action happens at the end of the book. I’m curious to learn more about the other world and Wen’s grandma. There are hints at her grandma having a mysterious past. However, we as the reader are both in the dark as much as our main character. I’m also interested in learning more about the back story of the other characters. I really enjoyed that most of the characters are ones found in fairytales! If you love fairytales and their tropes I think you’ll enjoy this! I wish more went on plot wise in this book, but it is the beginning of a series. I found the ending rather abrupt. At least with my digital ARC it just ends on a final panel, leading me to wonder if there was more in the book and my copy was cut short. Typically there is an “about the author” or some sort of end pages, but this edition did not have that. I assume the page it ended on is the ending of the first volume though! I look forward to reading more!

Straight in with a no hesitation 5 star rating.


Read in one sitting, Raven Saga, Vol. 1 offers a beautifully illustrated graphic novel. A good, evenly paced narrative flow and a cast of wonderful and interesting characters.

I thought the artwork combining fresh art and colour was stunning. The story board was easy to follow and included a lot of movement. I never felt lost trying to work out who was speaking or the order of the panels which worked well reading on a tablet.

Character cutaways were thoughtful; using expressive colour to show change.

The expressions of the characters were delightful in more relaxed/ comical of the scenes and brought tension relief. I often caught myself chuckling at them.

The story was left on a cliffhanger and I just wanted to know more. There feels like there could be a lot of depth, legend and background to this story.

Overall, it was a feel good story and a great way to kick off my new year's reading.

My thanks goes to NetGalley and Webtoon for providing an eARC in exchange for an honest review. It was an absolute pleasure to read and I would love to read more in the future.

I received an advanced copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
In a world of fairy tales and whimsical creatures, one young girl named Wen lives with her grandmother within a magical barrier. She’s been told all her life to never cross the barrier outside her farmstead. However, when an unknown prince collapses just outside, Wen accidentally saves him, triggering the barrier to collapse. At the same time, another mysterious boy with ravens kidnaps Wen’s grandmother, which pushes her and the prince to journey across lands far and wide to save her only family.
While Wen is naive about the world outside her farm, she still sees people through innocent eyes, despite some who may take advantage of her. This delightful graphic novel draws upon unanswered wishes and talking animals, and one teen girl who’s determined to save her grandmother. Bright colors of pale blues and straw yellows paint a picture of majestic mountains, large castles, and the sights and sounds of a bustling market. Wen might have her hands full on her long journey, but with friends by her side, she can hopefully find the answers to her past.

Disclaimer: I have read an early copy of the book via edelweiss, thank you!

A promising beginning to a graphic novel fantasy series with a very fairytale feel to it.

Our main character Wen lives with her grandma in the forest, forbidden from ever leaving the area protected by the barrier her grandma put up. At least until they come across a mysterious boy in the forest and everything goes to hell. Now Wen and her new friend Corliss along with his bird companion Theo must set out on a journey to save Wen's grandma and find the truth about her origin.

This is a very solid beginning to a fantasy series. We are introduced to plot threads that will most likely resolve later, we have an extremely charming cast of characters, a possible budding romance, everything you could possibly want from a story like this. Additionaly, the art is adorable and it's not overtly complicated, bringing to mind fantasy manga.

All in all, I had a lot of fun with Raven Saga and I'd love to check out the rest of the series.

Thank you to NetGalley and WEBTOON Unscrolled for the advanced readers copy! My review is voluntary and my honest opinion. ♡

Since reading this graphic novel last week, I have refreshed NetGalley everyday in search of volume two. I will definitely be continuing the series and buying copies for myself once they are out.

This graphic novel is beautiful. The art has such a cute and cozy feel and the color scheme is light on the eyes. The characters are all so fun! Honestly I was reminded of a lot of my favorite things while reading this. Our main character, Wen, is kept from the world for her protection and therefore is a little naive to things. This reminded me of Rapunzel, though her grandmother who is keeping her there is caring and sweet. And then we have our cursed prince who must help anyone who asks. This reminded me of Ella Enchanted.

Despite reminding me of other works, this felt super original. I loved the magic system so far and the connections to animals with it. I'm excited to see more of that system develop along with the world-building. I honestly really loved this one and it was exactly the type of read I needed. I wish I had books like this when I was a kid but I am so glad kids today can read books like this! I would definitely recommend this read! Such a cute and fun read!

[Megan · Rating 5 out of 5]

I received a digital arc from the publisher via Netgalley though all thoughts are my own.

I really enjoyed this story which starts off with a young woman named Wen reading a book about the ocean while sitting in a tree and I soon realized that this young woman was confined to an area in the woods with her Grandma, their little farm and a protection bubble.

It's soon apparent that the Grandma has her own reasons for confining her grand daughter and hints are given in the beginning of the story.

After her Grandma is carried off by a mysterious figure who can control a flock of Ravens and she's told to find a special star, Wen finds herself on an adventure with a young man who has his own reasons for going and his bird friend who may not really be a bird at all.

This book ends on a cliffhanger and I'm excited to continue this series soon!

The artwork is very well done and the story really kept my attention. Full of adventure, the power of friendship, mystery and magic, I highly recommend this book.

Wen has lived her whole life protected by her grandmother. She has no idea why but dreams of seeing the ocean and one day stepping foot outside her barrier. She becomes restless and one day follows a light that leads her to Corliss. Her grandmother sees that he holds the sign of who she believe can help them. When Wens grandmother is taken there’s no choice but to step foot into the unknown world that she so wished to venture out to. When, an innocent pure child has to now face the world with Corliss a cursed prince and his companion bird Theo, theyll seek out the truth that could help them both uncover what lies ahead.

This was a cute story, it gives off tangled vibes at first. I love all the Animals that were included. There’s a big mysterious aspect to the story which lead me a 27 year old to keep reading. The ending was pretty great which makes me want to come back and keep on reading.

3.5

This felt Rapunzel inspired right way, with Wen living in the forest never going beyond the magical barrier. The art is lovely and captures the fantasy world very well. I also liked our cast of characters. Talking animals always have a special place in my heart and Theo definitely found his place there. There were the beginnings of a found family dynamic which I love in fantasy.

I enjoyed the read but my feelings aren't particularly too strong. The worldbuilding felt thin, but that's also partly to Wen being so unfamiliar with everything. There was the reference to Jack and the Beanstalk, and I'd be curious enough to see what other might appear, but I am not necessarily wanting another sequel.

Overall, I enjoyed my time with this adventure, I am just not sure if I want to continue.

Thank you to NetGalley Wattpad WEBTOON Book Group | WEBTOON Unscrolled for the digital ARC for review.

If you really enjoy fairytales and graphic novels this is the read for you.

Wen is a girl who has been kept away from the real world by her grandmother in order to keep her safe. One day she ventures out to save a boy and it results in her grandmother being captured. Her and the boy, Prince Corliss, go on a journey to find the “morning star” that her grandmother promised would bring answers.

The dynamic between Wen and Corliss is immediately absolutely adorable and I can’t get enough. They are both so sweet and complement each other really well.

I am very interested in seeing what they get up to in further volumes. This volume introduces a lot of issues that need resolved, so I’m sure there will be a lot to uncover.

I really love the art style of this webcomic! Wen is such a loveable girl that just wants to explore the world outside the little area the stones permit her. There's so much I want to know about her grandmother, she seems to have so much lore to her story, and I hope it gets further expanded on in further volumes. Corliss and Theo are just such cutie pies as they help Wen in her adventures, as she helps Corliss with his problems. I can't wait until we know more about other characters and see more world building since There's something more sinister going on than what is clearly shown.

[Robin · Rating 4 out of 5]

I enjoyed this graphic novel and the references to certain fairy tales in the story so far. I love the artwork and the main characters. I can see my daughter enjoying this adventure read.

Wen is the main character in the story. She has been hidden away from the world by her grandmother. She has always dreamed of one day exploring all the sights she's read about in books. Wen mysteriously is tranced to leave the force field one day and finds Corliss laying in on the ground in the woods. This triggers a collapse of the force field around their home that was keeping all the danger out.

I can't wait to see how this world will build!

[Hope · Rating 5 out of 5]

Super cute! The artwork was well done and I loved that it was in color.

Basically, Wen is sheltered by her grandma and never sees the outside world. But when she wanders outside her grandma's protection barrier, she saves a boy but sets into motion the very thing her grandmother was trying to protect her from.

The story ends rather abruptly but anyone with any familiarity to fairy tales will recognize some of the characters and tropes. I'm always up for fairy tale retellings, and this has it all: beautiful artwork, a cursed prince, humor--I can't wait to continue the story!

I love it already! The characters, the story, the world building. The color palette is very pretty and suited towards that fairytale feeling. Wen and Corliss are adorable and you can’t help but root for them both. There’s a lot of mystery surrounding both of their pasts and lots of setup that’s naturally integrated into the story. I was on the edge of my seat multiple times, but it balances well with the cute and humorous moments of exploration. Overall a really good start, I’d recommend this for sure!

Thank you to NetGalley for this e-ARC.

This adaptation of fairy tales won my heart! The art style is so soft and nostalgic; I felt like I was reading a graphic novel published by Studio Ghibli. The homages to different stories (Mother Goose, Oscar Wilde's work, Charles Perrault).

In case you can't tell, I have an obsession with these tales. I've spent my free time researching them just for fun! I grew up with a giant Mother Goose book and a Beatrix Potter compilation from my grandmother. I think those two books are what launched my fanaticism. They were unlike anything else I had read. I believe this published Webtoon carries that same magic.

I really enjoyed this graphic novel! It was a super quick read but also enjoyable and I am excited to continue the story !

This is a mash of retellings and I am here for it! Wen has been hidden away from the world in a bubble in the forest where the seasons pass by and she’s standing still! Eager to see the outside world she doesn’t know the dark secrets that lurk outside the protective walls!

As rebellious teens do she took it a step too far and now she’s facing the real world and all its dangers.

It was simple and yet effective. Illustrations matched the flow of the story and I fell right into the story! I definitely recommend.

Volume One follows Wen as she meets Corliss and his talking bird friend, Theo. Wen's grandmother is taken, and Corliss agrees to help Wen try to find her. Along the way they meet Hamelin, a flute player who leads them to Jack, the giant killer. It is set in a fairy-tale world, which is reflected well in the artwork. The style was very cute, and gave this volume charm. There is magic, curses, and talking animals; what's not to love? I will be picking up the next volume once it is released for sure! The story gives cozy mystery vibes which should be a hit for all ages.
