Summary:"The sixth installment of Neil Gaiman's seminal, New York Times best-selling series celebrates its 30th anniversary with an all-new edition, featuring a new cover from artist Dave McKean! Fables and Reflections continues the fantastical epic of Morpheus, the King of Dreams, as he observes and interacts with an odd assortment of historical and fictional characters throughout time.
