After the interlude of the last collection, this volume hops right back into the action, with the Adversary sending a representative to Fabletown, and Bigby visiting his father to attempt to enlist his help in the war. There are also a few vignettes to explain, or further, the back story of some of the other characters.
I really enjoy these books. I love seeing how they’re going to twist the stories next, or the unexpected way they bring in various characters. I’m still loving Bigby, Snow and the cubs, and I love how kindly old Geppetto is the evilest guy around.
