Book Description

Publication Date: 28 Oct 2010
Fable is a first person role-playing game set in the city realm of Albion. The city is full of riches and poverty, magic works but industry is coming. The royal family who run the city have a dark past and its secrets rule the present. Past versions of the game have been set in, loosely, medieval and renaissance times. The new version, launched to coincide with the book, will take the city into the industrial revolution, launching a war between industry and magic. The game is unique for the richness of the created universe and for the way the actions of the character are reflected in its appearance and the responses of NPCs to it: if you eat a lot you become fat, if you get into a lot of fights you get scarred and people become wary of you. The interaction of player and game, the richness of the world, makes the franchise unusually appropriate for a tie-in novel and the novel comes with a code for the fable 3 ingame weapon.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fun for both the young and not-so-young 23 Nov 2010
By Colin
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
A very entertaining read. It is clearly writing with the aim that it is an accessible read for young teenagers but as an older reader I still found it very enjoyable and a pleasant reminder of boyhood adventures with your best friend

4.0 out of 5 stars Loved it, but it's a tad bit too short 17 Nov 2010
By Thomas Esser
Format:Paperback
It's good, but it felt a little rushed. Furthermore I've not much to say, Peter David seems to have done his homework on the Fable franchise and there's a little something in the game that's to do with Reaver you wont understand unless you read this, plus, the weapon is awesome.

5.0 out of 5 stars the book for for fable fans! 20 Oct 2011
By ben darby
Format:Paperback
This is the book that any fable fan should get because it is covers albion and over places in such detailed. The book is action packed, mysteries and mythical. This book is in great detailed and is one of the best game books I have ever read. It is a good book and the weapon is a really nice touch as well ;)

4.0 out of 5 stars Just a bit to short
Very good book. well written and works in with the fable universe. A bit short and rushed towards the end, but worth the purchase.

3.0 out of 5 stars Fable: The Balverine Order
This book is an entertaining enough read and probably about the right length. It's essentially a coming of age story for young guys who grow up in the industrialised Albion of... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Worth buying for the code
I purchased this product for the weapon code, and it was well worth it. It is a weapon that you can not find or buy so if you want it you have to purchase this book. Read more
