Jack hits the road in search of a lost city of gold in this new collection featuring issues #17-21. Aided by his sidekicks Paul Bunyan, Humpty Dumpty, Gary the pathetic fallacy and the mysterious Hillary Page, Jack's in for the adventure of a lifetime!

Another hit!  Jack has really grown on me in the last few volumes.  He's more than just the bad boy of Fabletown.  His stories just keep getting more and more involved.  This time we encounter a few old favorites (Hello Mr. Dumpty and Alice) and a few new ones (Goodbye Mr. Burner).  I have loved the twists and turns.  Finding out the connections between all the fables, and more importantly the stories themselves, has been a great adventure.  And this volume has zombies!  Best volume yet!
