Fable eShorts Cover Reveal

Closely-timed to the release of Fable Heroes, will be three digital shorts written by bestselling author Peter David. Focusing on key characters from the videogame series, these tales will delve deep into the greatest triumphs, darkest secrets, and never-before-seen origins of the legends of the Fable universe. We’re thrilled to reveal the details and the covers for the three Fable digital shorts. Each will be available on all major e-reading platforms, and will release as follows:

Fable: Reaver eShort

 Fable: Reaver – May 1, 2012
There are high stakes on the high seas as the always cunning Reaver takes on a ruthless pirate king. Captain Dread has made a deal with the port cities: they pay him for protection, and he doesn’t raid them. It’s a neat and tidy arrangement, all agree, except for one man: Reaver, whose bold—and bloody—plan ultimately pits pirate against pirate in an explosive showdown that will live forever in the legendary world of Fable.

Fable: Jack of Blades eShort

 Fable: Jack of Blades – May 22, 2012

Jack of Blades, the supernatural terror, has been slain . . . or at least, that’s what they people of Albion been told. But the residents of Oddwood know that Jack is alive and well. Leading a small force of mercenaries, Jack has enslaved the townsfolk and is enjoying a life of luxury. But when the stranger arrives, Little does Jack realize that he’s dealing with a wild card—and a shocking twist to the Fable saga.

Fable: Theresa eShort

 Fable: Theresa – June 19, 2012
IMAGE: THERESA cover
In a small village, an innocent girl is tormented by disturbing hallucinations. Like Theresa, the girl is a seer, but one whose powers will lead to madness and death. Theresa has seen the girl’s fate in a shocking vision. Refusing to accept what appears to be certain, Theresa resolves to find the mythical cure for second sight. Can she change the future without changing everything?

    • This Fellow

      Doubtfull. It’s unlikely this peter david is going to write for free.

    Will they be as shit as the balverine order?

      Fable novels could be so good, if someone who understands Fable and it’s unique humor would write them.  The Balverine Order was barely recognizable as the same series. 

  • Drakinian

    Sounds awesome :D … seems that Jack of Blades survived after all… unless they mean the first time he was slain…

    • This Fellow

      What’s saying he was just slain thrice?

      • DETHACE713

        I feel its more important to ask why he would settle for small scale luxary and terrorizing small villages and how’d he come back. Also wheres oddwood theres too many places to fit on the map anymore.

        • This Fellow

          Oddwood’s a place the writer thought of himself. Fitting, as we already have quite a few woods. The settling for smallscale thing, I would assume, is keeping his head down in avoidance of his slayer.

          • DETHACE713

            I figured as much but some one had to say it.

          • http://twitter.com/Fata1moose Bryan C

             Perhaps he is waiting for the bloodline to die off before trying to take over Albion. Or this is just after he was defeated the first time

      • http://profile.yahoo.com/7KUJYC67UY5BJPC52QRW3STVJQ David Rivera

        Well he was killed by William Black first, then his next known death was by the Hero of Oakvale in thee Guild, and the final known defeat was in the Northern Wastes.

        Though there’s no way to know how many times Jack was killed. My bet is that this is right after his defeat by William Black.

        • MeltedSheepy

          I suspect you’re right, but I think it would be interesting if it was after The Hero of Oakvale supposedly destroyed him. It doesn’t seem very Jack-ish for him to be simply living a life of luxury in a village. Maybe he’s lying low, waiting for a new moment to strike… 
          I’ve never been one of those “Jack was the best villain, he should come back” sort of people, but I wouldn’t mind him making a return.

  • DETHACE713

    Shame I probly won’t get to read them. I’m most curious about the jack one though because its not specific as to after what event and what that wild card is. Also based on this knowledge theresa is going to be a doll in the game: which version though.

    i’d like to think these eshorts will all be teasers for Fable4, and Jack’s finally back as the villain. PLEASE BRING JACK BACK! he’s still the coolest Fable character (especially if you give him back his old voice).

  • MeltedSheepy

    It’s a shame that I don’t have an eReader… D:

  • This Fellow

    It’s a bit strange for Theresa to act so emotionally, isn’t it?

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Heather-Greene/100000048293525 Heather Greene

    YEEESSSSSSSS I APPROVE.

  • http://www.facebook.com/KenraJenea Kendra Jenea

    I hope we don’t need to have an eReader to read these… I would be totally bummed!
