On fuzzyoctupus's recommendation, I just requested Singer from the Sea from the library. I'll let you know what I think, when I get to it (I've got like 10 books ahead of that to read).
And I finished up the library's available copies of Bill Willingham's graphic novel series Fables. Very good--but also very PG-13. Willingham takes fairytale characters and puts them in a secret society in modern day New York, where he explores virtue and vice--but mostly vice. I like the strong, interesting characters, and the story has lots of surprises, and by now I'm so involved in the story the language and occasional nudity can't deter me. But fair warning--despite having fairytale characters, this is not for kids.
So I've enjoyed vol. 1-5--but the library doesn't carry anymore! And I'm dying to know more about Snow, Bigby, Blue, Red Riding Hood, and all the others--and where the conflict with the Adversary will go next. I think there's only one more volume published at present. Maybe I can track it down at a bookstore...
