Review:

So you loved the great fairy tales like Beauty and the Beast, Snow White and the Three Little Pigs. Then you MUST read this adorable book.

Just imagine ALL of your fairy tale characters are now living in New York City after being exiled from their land by the Adversary. Imagine Snow White as this bitchy sort-of vice mayor who runs the new Fable Town. How about the previous lovable Prince Charming, who is now divorced with Snow White because she caught him having sexual affairs with BOTH Sleeping Beauty and Red Rose (Snow White’s sister).

If you think Fables is just a parody of our favorite characters then think again. In the first book, Red Rose has been brutally murdered and it’s up to our favorite Bigby (also known as the Big Bad Wolf but now acting as the sheriff of Fable Town) to solve this mystery.

With a very enchanting premise and great art, you really can’t go wrong with this magical book.
