About this ebook
The official prequel novel to the Xbox 360 videogame, Fable:™ The Journey
It’s been almost a decade since the events of Fable 3, when the Hero vanquished the threat across the sea and claimed his throne. As king he led Albion to an era of unprecedented peace and prosperity. But on the night of his wedding to his new queen, ominous word arrives: The darkness has returned.
Beyond a harrowing mountain pass, the exotic desert country Samarkand has been overrun by shadowy forces. Within the walls of its capital city, a mysterious usurper known only as the Empress has seized control. To protect his realm, the king must lead his most trusted allies into a strange land unknown to outsiders. As they forge ahead along Samarkand’s ancient Great Road, populated by undead terrors and fantastic creatures once believed to be the stuff of legend, the king is drawn ever closer to his greatest challenge yet.
But soon Albion is engulfed in a war of its own. As the darkness spreads, town by town, a treacherous force has infiltrated the queen’s circle. Now the fate of all that is good rests with a faint flicker of hope . . . that somewhere, somehow, heroes still do exist.

This put a whole new perspective on the Fable 3 game! All characters were in character. Reaver was the jerk we all know and love. Well atleast me anyway. Ben Finn was the outspoken gunslinger we all know. Kalin, Page and even the Hero King. I do however wish the Hero King had a name. Gives him more of a feeling of character instead of just referring him as 'the King'. Still, I am very happy I bought this book and being the Fable 3 fan that I am, I can't wait for the next installment of this book.
