Never lets up! - By: T. Noever, 11 Jul 2007
At the heart of this collection: evil machinations, plans & schemes in the Adversary's Empire; a long-lasting conflict between a father & a son coming to a resolution of sorts. Add to this a very grim twist on the aftermath of the Hansel & Gretel story that makes Frau Totenkinder look almost benign; a hint that the humblest & maybe most tragic of alll the residents of Fabletown may turn out to be their savior; little snippets of background material & vignettes on Fables plus one potentiallly significant non-Fable.

One of the things I like most about the characters is that even the most evil ones do have a story behind them, which reveals the choices & paths that made them become whom we meet here. And the good ones are never quite as clean as we might like to think of them either. Everything has more than one side & Fables makes a point of virtuallly never letting us forget that.

As always, or maybe even more so, simply brilliant.
