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

4.0

This is a bit more like it, and for the first time, I appear to be reading the series I was expecting from Fables: there's a big council of villains in this volume, and - naturally - they come from different books and legends. (Special points for including L. Frank Baum's Nome King.) The Snow Queen's plan to destroy the Fables is remarkably OTT, but it is entertaining. Unfortunately, the second storyline, involving Bigby, Snow White, and their children visiting the North Wind, is hampered by weak art. However, in terms of writing, it's probably Willingham's strongest attempt at interpersonal relationships so far.
