Currently Reading: Fables: Peter and Max


I'm taking a totally different route with my reading. This has been sitting on the shelf for a while and thought it's about time I give it a read. Who doesn't love fables and fairy tales? I can't wait to start this tonight.

Book: Fables: Peter & Max by Bill Willingham with Illustrations by Steve Leialoha

Book Description:

In the deepest dark of The Black Forest, two brothers will come undone...

When an unspeakable tragedy befalls a family of traveling minstrels, they become stranded and left for dead. Here in the heart of The Black Forest, Peter Piper and his older brother Max encounter ominous forces that will change them both irreparably. Thus begins an epic tale of sibling rivalry, magic, music and revenge that spans medieval times to the present day when their deadly conflict surfaces in the placid calm of modern-day Fabletown.

Writer Bill Willingham deftly weaves a story of adventure and dark fantasy - ably accompanied by lush illustrations by noted FABLES artist Steve Leialoha - that will keep readers riveted until the final, fateful page.
