Fairest was a book I was looking forward to picking up this week along with a few others. I have been on a new title pull for a few weeks now, trying out new titles and from different companies.
When I first opend this book up, frist impression was WOW look at this artwork, I'm going to enjoy this book! It also had that old comic feel by the paper used to print it on. If you love good artwork, this was a feast for your eyes.
Now time to come to the story. With all the wonderful artwork, what let me down was the storyline. Now let me just say that I have never read any of the Fables books before, so maybe I am missing something on this.
Story was choppy and at times did not seem to flow well. There is a sequence that Ali Baba is being hunted down by a mystery stalker that he is unaware of, and in a sequence of him trying to escape you would think he was running away from this above stalker, but noooo, he is apparently being chased by some kind of monster that I have no idea of how it ended up chasing Ali. It's like I missed a page in my book or something.
Then are things mentioned in the dailogue that makes you wonder, did I miss that part somewhere? Again, am I missing some pages from my book I bought?
For a first issue, I think I should not be feeling like I need to have read some other book to figure out what is going on in this one, or questioning whether or not I skipped a page or did not have it in my book I purchased.
I am willing to give this book a few more issues to hopefully work out my percieved kinks just due to the great artwork alone.
Not sure if any of you that have read this book as well, feel the same way as I do about the storyline, would apprecaite your comments and please let me know how I can better review a book as well. I would like to take these reviews seriously as I do read others and do try to pick up books based upon others reviews to give them a try.
