It's a book that repeatedly blends ethnicities with, and infuses LGBT heroes and heroines into, some of our most well-known tales. And it consistently does so in a way that is mature, clever, and entertaining. And this third story arc from the ongoing series serves up the best yet in that endeavor." 9.5/10 -Comicosity From the Inside Flap "Cinematic in scope, heroic in tone, and quite beautiful to behold." -Booklist From the Back Cover "Enormous fun." -Scripps Howard News Service"Imaginatively parses the tangled taboos and bylaws of Fabletown." -Publishers Weekly"A rollicking good adventure tale, filled with all the humor, creativity, and stellar art FABLES fans have come to expect." -MTV Geek About the Author Sean E.
