Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

The sixth volume in the series explores some of Bigby Wolf's extracurricular exploits around the mundane world in "Cinderella Libertine" and "War Stories" before returning to the main storyline in "The Year After," which follows the aftermath of the Adversary's attempt to conquer Fabletown. Rated for mature readers.

Review:

"Exquisitely detailed and vibrant art pulls readers into this well-crafted fantasy." School Library Journal

Review:

"If the dialogue is a mite clunky this time, the artwork seems more lavish than ever." Booklist

Synopsis:

Collecting issues #42-47 of writer Bill Willingham's Eisner Award-winning creation, FABLES: ARABIAN NIGHTS (AND DAYS) opens a new front in the struggle between the Fables and the Adversary as the worlds of the Arabian Fables are invaded — leading to an unprecedented diplomatic mission to Fabletown and a bad case of culture shock! This seventh volume of the popular Vertigo series also includes "The Ballad of Rodney and June," the 2-part story of forbidden love among the Adversary's wooden soldiers, and features stellar Art by Mark Buckingham, Steve Leialoha, Jim Fern, Jimmy Palmiotti and Andrew Pepoy.

The opening of this collection finds Prince Charming trying (and failing) to deal ably with his position as Mayor of Fabletown. Boy Blue has returned from the Homelands with essential information about the Adversary, but due to Fable laws about the theft of magical items, he is imprisoned and awaiting trial. Meanwhile, a contingent from the Arabian Nights version of Bhagdad has arrived, and there are definitely some things getting lost in the translation. I felt that this collection was overall a bit weaker than the preceeding one, but then, I tend to find Bigby, Snow White, and Boy Blue to be the most interesting characters, and this collection didn't have much "screentime" for any of them.
