Cinderella: Fables Are Forever Chris Roberson
Yay! More adventures in Cinderella's double life as one of Fabletown's spies! I love this other side to her!
As I mentioned on Monday, the closing scene of Inherit the Wind sets up the story for this one (although we start with a flashback, so it doesn't appear right away.)
The person who killed Kadabra is an old, old nemesis of Cindy's--one she thought she buried a long, long time ago. We start in the USSR, in the early 80s. Lots of sexy ladies in hot tubs. That was the last time Cindy met her old advesary.
Remember how I said we were going back to Oz? Meet Dorothy Gale, mercenary. We get some good backstory on her, too.
With Mr. Kadabra's death, many old secrets and enemies are coming home to roost, with issues involving the other Fable communities around the world. I like the backstory that flushes out these characters that don't quite fit into the main Fables narrative. I also love the deeper look at the international Fable politics.
PLUS! Anansi! ANANSI! What a wonderful surprise to see him turn up as a character.
I hope we see much more of Cinderella's adventures, as she really does open up the the Fables universe.
Plus, she knows how to fight.
