The Deluxe Limited Edition of Howl's Moving Castle by Diana Wynne Jones is set for release on September 9. This 1986 novel tells a different story than the 2004 Studio Ghibli film, focusing on Sophie Hatter, who, cursed by the Witch of the Waste, becomes an old woman. To reverse her curse, she seeks help from Wizard Howl, whose mobile castle is central to the narrative. The novel is the first of a trilogy, followed by Castle in the Air and House of Many Ways, expanding on different characters and adventures.
Originally published in 1986, the story of Howl's Moving Castle is much different than the 2004 film directed by Hayao Miyazaki and serves as the first book in a trilogy.
Howl's Moving Castle follows Sophie Hatter after she accidentally attracts the attention of the Witch of the Waste, transforming her into an old woman.
Sophie’s only chance at breaking her curse lies within the Wizard Howl’s castle, a mobile base ruled by an infamous heartbreaker.
