Embarking on an incredible adventure to lift the curse, she finds refuge in Howl’s magical moving castle.As the true power of Howl’s wizardry is revealed, and his relationship with Sophie deepens, our young grey heroine finds herself fighting to protect them both from a dangerous war of sorcery that threatens their world.
