Buy Fables TP Vol 01 Legends In Exile 1 by Willingham, Bill (ISBN: 8601401163947) from desertcart's Book Store. Everyday low prices and free delivery on eligible orders. Review: couldn’t it down - Very enjoyable. Beautiful illustrations cat wait to read more. Lots of nostalgic fairytale feelings tho obviously they differ Ron original stories. Review: Once upon a time there was a comic and it was awesome. - I realise I am rather late to the Fables party, but am definitely glad I finally arrived. The simple premise of fairy tale creatures living amongst the 'mundies' in contemporary New York seems ripe for a kids book, however this is far from child's play. A dark and rich story of murder and intrigue unfolds within the beautiful artwork that has at once the feeling of classic illustrations and modern comic art at the same time. There are a few moments as the Big Bad Wolf prowls through his list of suspects where the story can be a little clunky, although I am convinced these teething issues will be ironed out in the future issues. Overall this is a fantastic book, and hopefully series. I'll be sure to let you know soon.

Beautiful
Plot - excellent - a few detective cliches but I feel they are probably deliberate and a play on the genre. Ink-work and Art Work - B E A utiful to quote Truman. Dialogue - excellent, zingy and genuinely funny Whether you are into comics or not this is an excellent purchase.

Even if you're not interested in the whole series, buy this book
All the 5 issues collected in this book are penciled by Lan Medina, this alone would worth the price! His artwork is so refreshing, not in the sense that is über modern, but because it authentic old fashioned. It is just so easy for the eyes, very detailed and nice character depiction. I'm, simply in love with his work. The story itself is very well written, there are some hilarious moment in it (ex. Pinokkio) and the 5 chapters make a complete whole. The pages are printed on matte paper, which is not my favourite, but it produces nice quality prints and goes well with Lan's artwork and with the colouring used. [Side note: there is a Fairest teaser at the end of the book -- I don't have the book yet, but I do hope they use glossy paper for that, since that style needs the vibrant colour finish! ] I highly recommend this book.

recently discovered
After playing the new telltale game - the wolf among us I got captivated by the world and left wanting more only to discover the actual series the game was based on! A fantastic read for mature readers using old fairy tales and some nudges towards big franchises (oz and narnia) as being a part of the world. The whole thing wrapped up in an almost noir style detective story! Amazing

Good read
I hesitate to give this five stars because such a rating should only be given to something that is near perfect but that should give people no doubt that this is a fantastic read. Imaginative, colourful, amusing and interesting, this book places the standard genre of detective story into an extraordinary setting yet keeps the basic plot interesting. Well worth a read!

J'ai découvert le comic en jouant au jeu "The wolf amongt us". J'ai tellement adoré que j'ai voulu commencer la collection, et je ne regrette pas, l'univers est vraiment intéressant, et j'adore voir les personnage de conte sous un autre angle.

Me resulta creativo, divertido y muy humanizante . Una visión muy terrenal de después de comer perdices
