Castle in the Sky Volume 1

Inspired by "Gulliver's Travels and set in the legendary days of the first flying machines in the 19th century, "Castle in the Sky features evil pirates, power-mad secret agents, and Sheeta, a young girl wearing a mysterious blue stone around her neck. The stone lets Sheeta defy gravity - and float down into the life of Pazu, a tough young orphan boy inventor. Imaginative settings, dramatic air battles, and memorable characters distinguish this classic Miyazaki adventure. In Volume I, legendary secrets link Sheeta's stone to the incredible dangers and mysteries of Laputa, the Castle in the Sky. It's up to Sheeta - and her new friend Pazu - to uncover those secrets by navigating a sky filled with strange creatures and characters bent on keeping her from fulfilling her destiny.
