An Un-Calibrated Centrifuge

I think I read this book at the right time. I was in the right mood and the right frame of mind. At another time I might have related too much or too little, and the story would have annoyed me. Gives me Lost at Sea vibes (but more normal).

'1,001 Nights of Snowfall' can function as a standalone arc within the 'Fables' story, but I followed some advice that it should follow 'Mean Seasons'.The premise is that years ago, in the 19th century, Snow is sent as a emissary from Fabletown to a Sultan of the Arabian Fables. His court is offende...

My two favourite aspects of the Fableverse to date are 1)the remarkable consistency of each volume and 2)the twisting around of fairytales. Unfortunately for me this particular volume had one of those factors but not the other with the quality of each story and the artwork changing from narrative to...

Completely missed that this was a volume 1 and not a stand alone, and it ends on a cliffhanger right when the story gets interesting. Figures! (You guys can thank me, I just added the series info and "Book 1" to the title so you're not duped like I was.)Not bad but kind of annoying that this is goin...

Very cute and short, so even if you don't end up liking it, you won't have lost much. The one obnoxious element was the beginning of the romantic element because it was very...ultimate nerd boy fantasy, but whatever, didn't ultimately take away from the story as a whole. Some laugh out loud jokes in...

I only wish there were more stories. My personal favorite was the one of Frau Totenkinder. I also loved the art style.
