Fables: The Deluxe Edition, Book Eight by Bill Willingham
4.0
3.5 stars. Rounding up because I’m feeling nice.
I am starting to feel with the Fables series that each volume is only just good enough to keep me going onto the next, admittedly.
This one is a fairly well contained story about a character whom has rarely been in the spotlight before, which I enjoyed. What I less enjoyed is that everything plays out with, fittingly, fairytale convenience. Was it satisfying? Yes, but kind of in the kind of way a microwave meal satisfies when you’re hungry. It didn’t offer much beyond the basis for me, I’m afraid!
