I picked this up on a whim in the used book portion of the Barnes and Noble near us. The artwork in here took my breath away and I decided I had to buy it. I am so happy I did, I really really enjoyed this graphic novel. The artwork is wonderful, the story is dark and clever. This book details the story of the Enchanted. The Enchanted are fairy tale characters we know and love that have been pitted into a dark and dangerous battle with an evil Hag and her abomination of a son, a gigantic troll from under the Bridge. The Enchanted include: Jack the Giant Killer, Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel, Hansel and Gretel, Goldilocks and the Bear...among others. I cannot gush enough about the artwork in this book. It is just absolutely fantastic, when I first saw it it stunned me with its darkness and its beauty. The artwork is dark, more in the vein of horror than fantasy. The monsters are built from a montage of flesh and clockwork and gears. The heroes are darkly beautiful and definitely deadly. It was just wonderful. Then imagine my surprise when the story was just as fantastic. The characters are from fairy tales, but they are from an alternate version where things are much more brutal and much darker. Red riding hood kicks butt with two deadly sickles and a blood red cloak enfolding her armor; Gretel uses her mental powers to walk the nightmarish landscapes of monsters' minds, Jack has a bean for every power and purpose. The way the fairy tale characters are thrown together is clever and wonderful. I loved how Percival worked so many fairy tale references into this story. It is a complete story in this one graphic novel; although it would be fabulous to see more stories set in this world in the future. This is definitely an adult book; the imagery is just too disturbing and scary for kids. It is gory, there is torture, killing, and sexual inneundo...so definitely for adults only. I did have one problem with this book; it was just too short. Realistically Percival could have made a graphic novel featuring each of these fantastic characters and drawn the story out to many more novels. It would have been wonderful to have room for more details and more character development. That being said he did a great job with filling out the characters with the space he had; I just wanted more and saw a lot bigger potential for story here. Overall a fantastically dark graphic novel that plunges the reader into a steampunk inspired world of horror where familiar fairy tale heroes feature. I loved this book, it is a keeper and will remain a cherished part of my graphic novel collection. I am really looking forward to any other future works that Percival does and would absolutely love to see more stories set in the Legends world.

This book was mostly boring with a few parts that I found lovely.
Not a lot of detecting going on here, but it's still a good, gentle read and will be of interest to anyone who has read this far in the series or further. Smith keeps his characters developing and there's some good news for most of the major ones in this installment.
I've loved this book for 2 decades now - it was one of my first vegan cookbooks and it's still one of my favorites. The book is a good vegan primer with information for new vegans or those interested in the lifestyle. The recipes are delicious and relatively easy to prepare, although many of them contain a large number of ingredients. But the cover tells the truth that it's for cooks "from beginner to gourmet" and if you can find a copy, I'd recommend getting it.
3.5 stars.

This seems to have a lot of answers to my previously-unanswerable questions.

I absolutely loved this book!
Totally charming and entertaining -- I especially enjoyed King Christian of Denmark and his delightfully loopy estranged wife Kirstin Munk. I did weary of the constant present tense, and some of the musical bits seemed unrealistic.
