    <body><![CDATA[This collection of the <em>Fables</em> series doesn't follow a single story line. Instead you get a little of this and a little of that--a tale of espionage, a two part flashback to World War II, an account of a concurrent election and multiple birth in Fabletown, and a bunch of long running plotlines that a...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/45194491">more...</a>]]></body>
