Synopsis
This is the second volume of the critically acclaimed "New York Times" best-selling new series from the Eisner-nominated creative team of Mike Carey and Peter Gross. Tom Taylor's father created the Tommy Taylor fantasy series, boy-wizard novels with popularity on par with Harry Potter. The problem: Dad modeled the fictional epic so closely to Tom's real life that fans are constantly comparing him to his counterpart...dangerously so. When a scandal reveals that Tom might really be a boy-wizard made flesh, Tom comes into contact with a mysterious group that's kept tabs on him all his life. Now, to protect his own life and discover the truth behind his origins, Tom will travel the world, eventually finding himself at locations all featured on a special map that charts places throughout world history where fiction has shaped reality. In this volume, Tom arrives at Donostia prison in southern France and falls into the orbit of another story: "The Song of Roland". Unfortunately for Tom, it's a story that ends with a massacre...

From Booklist
The second collection of this literary comic continues the tribulations of Tom Taylor, who may be the fantasy-novel character Tommy Taylor (think Harry Potter), written by his father, come to life. The main plot arc has him getting plunked into Stuttgart, 1940, to save Jud Süss, a novel written by a Jewish dissident but twisted by Goebbels into an anti-Semitic propaganda film. This metafictional comic, where literary worlds bleed together, is still more in the business of promising than delivering, but what it promises is getting more tantalizing by the moment. --Ian Chipman
