Think you know the greatest Fable of them all? YOU DON'T KNOW JACK!
After earning a fortune in Hollywood by cashing in on his own legend, little Jack Horner - a.k.a. Jack B. Nimble, a.k.a. Jack the Giant Killer - is now the most famous Fable alive. Sure, he's been stripped of his wealth and banished from Fabletown forever as a result, but Jack has always been a wanderer at heart, and the open road is like a home to him. So it's a real shame when he's plucked off the pavement and unceremoniously tossed into a gulag filled with other renegade Fables.
Within the walls of the Golden Boughs Retirement Home, however, Jack finds allies as well as enemies - and once he learns the ultimate goals of his jailer, Mr. Revise, breaking out becomes more than just a point of pride. Of course, over all the centuries that Revise has run his prison, no one has ever escaped from it. But hey, he's THE Jack of the Tales! How hard could it be?
