Fairest: In All the Land by Bill Willingham

4.0

So much better than the rest of the Fairest series (though a major character does come from one of the other Fairest stories)! There's plenty of action/mystery/intrigue and is a less stylistic extension of the Cinderella spinoffs, as she acts as the principle investigator in a string of murders. There are also consequences to the murders, decisions to be made, which leads to a greater discussion on the importance of beauty in classic fairy tales and the import this world places on it. It's a great story centered around strong, competent women.
