'Homelands' was satisfying, I didn't mind that the identity of the Adversary was who I expected it to be. There are times when you can build up a good surprise, and others you can't. If they had gone any other way I would have been irritated at the red herrings.Boy Blue left Fabletown after the batt...
This collection of Fables stood out in that most of it takes place in the Fables homelands, other than the edition about Jack's adventures in Hollywood. I gave it five stars because the writing is excellent as always, and the story took my emotions all over the place.Jack is not a favorite character...
This is the strongest addition to the Fables series to date. Perhaps it helps that this was more of an adventure story set in the Fablelands than previous novels and that we also find out the identity of the dreaded Adversary, which is an interesting little twist. This all reminds me that part of th...
Yay! My library decided to update its computer system at the end of the year which completely screwed up all my holds so it took me about 2 months to get this. I knew it was when you found out who the adversary is so I have been anxiously awaiting it in the meantime.I did not guess who it was. But i...
Heh, I KNEW it.
Probably the most boring one I've read so far... I think it's a novel that ties up previous ends and sets up some more knots to untangle in the future.. So not bad, just not all that entertaining as the others.
My five stars come with a caveat: they do not include the first two issues. They are a standalone story about Jack, an apparently popular character whose appeal I REALLY don't get. My girlfriend didn't like those issues, I skimmed them, and then moved on to the good stuff. And damn is it good.In con...
I am not a Jack fan, so the first two parts of this volume bored me to tears. I didn't really start enjoying myself until we got to Blue's story near the end. Without the last couple parts, this would be a two star book for me, but Blue's sections were probably four stars, so it averages out to thre...
Jack heads to Hollywood to create a trilogy of movies about himself. Little Boy Blue plunges deep into the heart of the Adversary's empire. And in Fabletown, Mowgli is set on Bigby's trail, to track down the Big Bad Wolf and bring him home.It's a fun story, but there wasn't any character developme...
This series just keeps getting better and better. I didn't like the art style at all in this one to begin with, but I quickly forgot all about it as I was pulled into the story.
