<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Originally published in single magazine form as Fables 130-140"<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Imagine that all the characters from the world's most beloved storybooks were real--real, and living among us, with all of their powers intact. How would they cope with life in our mundane, un-magical reality? <p/> The answer can be found in FABLES, Bill Willingham's celebrated reimagining of the venerable fairy tale canon. From Snow White and the Big Bad Wolf to Goldilocks and Little Boy Blue, the folktales of old are reborn here as exiles living in the magically camouflaged New York City neighborhood of Fabletown. <p/> Acclaimed by critics and readers alike, these modern classics of comic book storytelling are now collected for the first time in a series of beautiful hardcover volumes. FABLES: THE DELUXE EDITION BOOK FOURTEEN includes the momentous saga of "Camelot" and the tales "Junebug" and "The Boys in the Band" from issues #130-140 of the award-winning Vertigo series, and features a new introduction by incisive essayist and former <i>MTV News</i> anchor Kurt Loder as well as a special sketchbook section from artists Mark Buckingham and Russ Braun.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>[A] wonderfully twisted concept. . . . features fairy tale characters banished to the noirish world of present-day New York.-- <i>The Washington Post</i> <p/>Spellbinding epic.--<i>Booklist</i> <p/>Clever, enjoyable . . . an excellent series in the tradition of Sandman, one that rewards careful attention and loyalty.--<i>Publishers Weekly</i> <p/>One of the best damn series ever written.--Ain't It Cool News<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Bill Willingham has been writing, and sometimes drawing, comics for more than 20 years.
