Description

In a world where fairy tales and folklore collide with gritty reality, an insidious power known as the Adversary has taken control, forcing iconic characters out of their enchanted realms and into the mundane lives of the modern world. Haunted by memories of their former glory, these legendary figures seek refuge in a hidden community called Fabletown, located in New York City. This collection introduces readers to the struggles of characters like Snow White, Bigby Wolf, and Pinocchio, who must navigate the complexities of their new existence while facing the looming threat of their conqueror.

As the narrative unfolds, readers are drawn into a richly woven tapestry of stories that explores themes of identity, loss, and resilience. With stunning illustrations by a talented array of artists, the volume captures the juxtaposition of the fantastical and the contemporary. The characters must not only contend with their past but also forge a future amidst the chaos, making for an engaging and thought-provoking journey through a world where the whimsical meets the harsh realities of life.
