I would have liked this book more if it didn't give Prince Charming such a big role. I wasn't even happy to have him back, because he's always been pretty awful and this was some of his worst behavior yet.

I wish they put some more effort into including Indian myths in this book that is set in India with Prince Charming. And the heroine's name - Nalayani - wish it was something better.

Pretty good. Not the best, but an interesting, different story. Some bits moved or developed super-fast, but they remained strangely in keeping with the world.

Wasn't the point of the Fairest series for the books to be about the women fables? This book is mostly about Prince Charming, who is a great character, but I'd rather see him in the regular Fables title. And for a land of nearly all women, only two women have names and one of them dies due to sex. Really?

A lost hero returns. No spoilers, just super glad to see him back, his character was missed.

I enjoyed this book and the addition of the character Nalayani but I don't see this story going anywhere
