A review by jcpdiesel21
Fables, Vol. 1: Legends in Exile by Bill Willingham
3.0
I enjoyed the world that Willingham created in this book and how he interpreted the way that characters from fables would coexist within today's society. The central mystery is a bit slight and wraps up too neatly, but it was fun to follow the twists along the way. The main characters are strong and nicely rounded, and I liked how peripheral characters that may play a larger role later in the series were briefly introduced. The humor sprinkled throughout is clever; I laughed out loud at Pinocchio's plight as an eternal boy, and the pig's multiple appearances in the city served as amusement and a reminder of the darkness that exists in Bigby. This is a promising start to the series and I will definitely be reading more.
