Book Description

Nov 20 2012 Fables (Unnumbered)
A #1 New York Times Best Seller!

At long last! The long-awaited original FABLES: WEREWOLVES OF THE HEARTLAND graphic novel is here!   

Bigby Wolf embarks on a quest through the American Heartland to find a new location for Fabletown, a secret society of exiled fairy tale characters living among the "mundys." In his wanderings, Bigby stumbles across Story City, a small town that seems to be occupied solely by werewolves. Oddly enough, they seem to already know and revere Bigby, but at the same time they've captured and caged him.  
 
FABLES: WEREWOLVES OF THE HEARTLAND tells an epic tale that began well before Bigby Wolf set foot in the bucolic plains of the Midwest. It began long ago when he served in World War II and became mired in a Nazi experiment that would change nations. It's soon evident that murder in Story City is the least of their sins, and unraveling the town's many mysteries may cost Bigby, the seventh son of the North Wind, much more than his own life.  
 
This new hardcover is a must-have for any longtime FABLES fan, as well as a great entry point for new readers.

Review

"Clever, enjoyable.... Willingham clearly has an immense amount of fun playing with these characters and their histories, and the art is a perfect match: clear, fanciful and finely drawn. Fables is an excellent series in the tradition of Sandman, one that rewards careful attention and loyalty."—PUBLISHERS WEEKLY on FABLES

"[A] wonderfully twisted concept.... Features fairy tale characters banished to the nourish world of present-day New York."—WASHINGTON POST

"[A] spellbinding epic."—BOOKLIST

3.0 out of 5 stars Not stellar, nor weak. Mar 17 2013
Format:Hardcover
It's a basic story that adds reasonably well to the Fables legacy. Unfortunately, it's not a shining example of what Willingham is capable of.

It plays well with the various tropes of fairy tales of various types, but unlike the other Fables entries, this tale fails to build upon those stories. It doesn't really add anything new to the readers' perspective.

It's a good tale, just not critical.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another Fables spin-off, another home run Mar 4 2013
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
Willingham is a machine. This is another carefully-crafted story, featuring the long-neglected (and incredibly compelling) character of Bigby Wolf. Bigby is at his best when he has to think on his feet, and this story provides that sort of situation in spades. Of all the Fables spin-off books, this has been my favourite.

1.0 out of 5 stars Wildly inconsistent art Dec 9 2012
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
Why would a book which is so clearly rushed and poorly illustrated merit a hardcover edition? I don't know either, but the story is ancillary at best and the art is just terrible. After the terrible fables cross over and now this, I think I'm done with this series all together.
