Review of 'Walt Disney Uncle Scrooge and Donald Duck the Don Rosa Library Vol. 4' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
This volume is mostly the first half of 12-part epic "The life and times of Scrooge McDuck", but it starts of with "Of Ducks and Dimes and Destinies" which was made before the epic but published after. And I think it's better to read it after, as it disrupts the chronology before it even begins. But once Chapter 1 starts, it's a a great ride throughout. These are stories I grew up with, and my Norwegian book collecting them is my dearest one. Still, reading them in English (and seeing them colored the way Rosa intended) is obviously a preferred way of reading them today.
