Description

This volume is set in the early days of Fabletown, long before the Fables series began, and features sequences illustrated by Charles Vess, Brian Bolland, John Bolton, Michael Wm. Kaluta, James Jean, Mark Buckingham, and Jill Thompson.

Traveling in Arabia as an ambassador from the exiled Fables community, Snow White is captured by the local sultan, who wants to marry her (and then kill her). But the clever Snow White attempts to charm the sultan instead by playing Scheherazade, telling him fantastic stories for a total of 1,001 nights. Running the gamut from horror to dark intrigue to mercurial coming-of-age, 1,001 Nights of Snowfall reveals the secret histories of familiar Fables characters through a series of compelling and visually illustrative tales.

1,001 Nights of Snowfall is both an entry point to the critically acclaimed series and an essential part of Willingham's enchanting and imaginative Fables mythos.
