The cubs get tested to see which of them will be the new north wind (kind of reminds me of the new dream successor of Morpheus )
Bufkin continues his revolution upon the new king of the world of oz.
Belle flower and dunster happ gets rescued from the barren land in which they helped mr.north.
Rose red gets to meet the last three agents of hope as she is the new agent of lady hope.
A few short tales about the world on the cup on a turtles back.
Lastly the tale of kadabara who helped fabletown escape the emperor's grasp for a long time i am not sure if they will be included in the main tale somehow since the witchy types have a hard time of staying dead.

Another interesting twist moves the greater plot along! I like that we're finally getting to know the cubs better. Also, I thought I'd be able to finish these before I moved to TX but I don't think I'm gonna manage it, which makes me sad

This was a little disjointed. It moved from one story to the next, and nothing got resolved, and it was hard to keep interested when it was moving back and forth at lightning speed.

I'm at that dreaded "only a few stories" left state of mind, but if its anything like its been up until this point, then I'm sure it'll be great.

Glad to finally see more of the Wolf cubs! The fallout of the confrontation with Mister Dark leaves the family with some major challenges ahead and it was interesting to see how they dealt with them. The story with Buffkin was just okay but it was still good to see him having his own adventures. A good addition to the series and definitely worth reading!

This one definitely reads as filler, setting up (I hope) for bigger storylines in future volumes.

We see Rose Red return to the Farm, and start to grow into her potential.

Bufkin manages to get into hot water. Let's hope he can get out of it too.

The new North Wind is chosen, and wasn't who I expected at all! Almost makes up for Nurse Spratt in the last volume. :)

The end of the book has a few back-story tales that reveal the true beginnings of Fabletown, which I'm hoping will be explored more in future issues.
