With Castle Dark now back in the hands of the Fables, mysteries both young and old begin to challenge the residents of Fabletown. Bigsby and Stinky set off from Fabletown in Rose Red's blood-fueled sports car to track down the two abducted cubs. Unfortunately for Snow White, besides suffering the trauma of having two of her cubs go missing, a long forgotten secret uncovered in Castle Dark threatens to sabatoge her and Bigsby's marriage.
While I loved the second half of this volume, I just wasn't as excited at the first part concerning Bufkin's adventures. I skimmed through the all of Bufkin's stories to get to Snow White. I needed to see how the search for the kids was progressing. I wanted to see if they had made any progress on turning Castle Dark into Fabletown. And I wanted to see how much the new residences had revealed about themselves. I was not disappointed in those respects. I loved and was heartbroken by Snow and Bigby's story. Ugh! Now I have to wait until Vol. 20 is released to see if there is any happy resolution. We also get a bombshell dropped on the last page. Can't wait to find out more. Overall, I still really enjoy this series, I just want to stick to the main storyline. One final thought: I want to know more about the relationship between the Blue Fairy and the Lady of the Lake...
