In this atmospheric tribute to the medieval folklore tradition of
trickster tales starring Reynard the fox, beloved children's
cartoonist Ben Hatke turns his pen to a very special project for
adult readers. 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.
