A review by samwescott
Fables, Vol. 9: Sons of Empire by Bill Willingham

4.0

Meh. This was a pretty middle of the road installment for me. Some of the short stories were cute and I am definitely intrigued by what is going on with Flycatcher. But the whole domestic-bliss thing still irks me and Snow and Bigby's children are of absolutely NO interest, so that didn't do anything for me.

I am always excited to see the struggles of the leadership in Fabletown, so the Hansel plot should be interesting. And I definitely enjoyed Pinnochio's long-winded hypothetical about what would happen if the mundies got involved with the Adversary's wars. Maybe the next volume will have less weird wind-puppy shenanigans and more Fabletown.
