Inspired by the 12th century tales of the indomitable trickster fox Reynard, this offbeat tribute to the archetypal rogue has a satisfyingly old-fashioned feeling to it. Although this Reynard adventure is entirely the creation of modern fairytale master Ben Hatke (Mighty Jack), it fits seamlessly into the body of Reynard tales still beloved in Europe to this day. Featuring evocative, charming black-and-white illustrations and a swiftly moving narrative, Reynard's Tale follows our hero through a series of encounters with other classic figures from this body of folklore to piece together a headlong journey through a perilous landscape filled with murderers, kings, ex-lovers, mermaids, and even Death herself.… (más)

Reynard the fox is being pursued by his distant cousin the wolf, on behalf of the king; can he make it to a safe oasis, or will he be run to ground? Dangers threaten, temptations tempt, but Reynard is victorious even over Death (at least temporarily), and then it is someone else's turn to wander for a while.

Beautiful production and art design; it feels special to hold and read.

Quotes

Would it be so bad? To stay here, ambered in the sweetness of the past? But not all memories are kind. (34)

And now we've come to the end of this particular tale, though it is merely a fragment of the great tapestry, and endings are but convenient snipping-off points along the infinite thread. (78) ( )

Simple and small - this short story is perfect for fantasy lovers. Reynard the Fox gives the king's men a merry chase after he has been summoned to work for the corrupt king. He goes on a quest through mountains and caves, makes friends, loses friends, confronts death, and finds himself push to his wits end. Filled with gorgeous illustrations - this little tale of a clever fox is perfect for older adventurers. ( )

The book is one of its kind. A folklore written in a poetic verse which takes you to old times. I have never read a book so beautiful and interesting. The plot ferries us to our childhood with its alluring verses. And, if you are also a fan of poems and folk tales, then you cannot miss this one.

Definitely, 5 stars to the book. Thanks to Netgalley for providing me an opportunity to read and review the book. ( )
