This wasn't my favorite Fables volume and frankly I felt like it was ripped off pretty blatantly from the Ramadan issue of Sandman. The story of Rodney and his gal June was what really made the book for me and what bumps it up to four stars. I can only hope we see more of them and their moral dilemma as their child comes into the world.

The stuff involving the Arabian Fables is interesting, though the second half of the volume involving two wooden soldiers becoming human is the surprising star of the book.

I really loved the addtion of all the arabian fairy tales, but the reason I am only giving ot four stars is because of the last chapter with June. Didn't really do anything for me

I love the Arabian Nights fables, and bringing them into the Fables universe was a great idea. I especially love the way there's some sort of link between Homelands Baghdad and our Baghdad. The interculture politics was a nice touch, as well as the idea that a D'jinn equates not that differently to a nuclear bomb. Great volume, things are really picking up on this series.
