The Wolf Among Us Episode 5 Book of Fables

How to find missing Book of Fables?: In-game the Book of Fables will unlock as you play through the story’s 6 Chapters. It can be confirmed as being Book of Fables for you to read, as the on-screen text in the top-right corner will then tell you that “New Book of Fables entry unlocked”.

Tip: You can read the Fable entries via the Main Menu, by going into the “Extras” section and selecting “Book of Fables”.

Does the game save each Book of Fables you collect?: Yes, the game will automatically save the Book of Fables you just collected or picked up the new Book of Fables entry, but it’s still recommended you play to the end of the Chapter. After getting each one your collectibles progress gets saved, as the on-screen indicator will show.

Where to find the final missing Book of Fables entries?: Almost all entries unlock as you play through the chapters. But in this The Wolf Among Us Grand Master Librarian Guide the ones you can miss are listed below as well…

Book of Fable Locations #1 & #2:

Location #1: During the car chase scene, go after and jump on Vivian (AKA The Girl with the Ribbon) & Georgie’s car. Afterwards, follow them inside (listen) and confront them. After Vivian dies the first Book of Fable entry should automatically unlock.
But these dialog choices will definitely lead you to a Book of Fable entry:
– Ask Georgie “What do you mean?”, and then ask Vivian “How could you?”, and say “We’ll find another way.”, “Of course you do.”, and “Jesus”.

Location #2: After Vivian dies at the Pudding & Pie club and Georgie is sitting next to her bleeding out, after you leave the scene and are about to walk out of the club the second Book of Fable entry should automatically unlock.
But these dialog choices will definitely lead you to a Book of Fable entry:
– “…”, “[Leave Him To Die]”, and “…”.

Book of Fable Location #3 (MISSABLE) & #4:

Here is the only missable Book of Fables entry in Episode 5…

Location #3: After entering the Sheppard Metalworks and examining the work bench, you’ll be able to talk to Bloody Mary / The Crooked Man. You will need to choose from the following dialog options: “I’m talking to you!” or “Cut the shit.” or “…” and then Mary will give you a a crude ‘your mom’ joke, after which the — otherwise missable — third Book of Fable entry ‘Winter Wolf’ will unlock.

Location #4: After winning the Bloody Mary boss fight, the fourth Book of Fable entry will automatically unlock.

Please note that if you want to know how to rewind the game’s scene here, that you should check the “Replay Tip” section at the bottom of this page. At least, I imagine not everyone wants their savefile negatively impacted by the potentially different outcome just to get the Book of Fables.

Book of Fable Locations #5, #6 & #7:

Location #5: At the end of The Crooked Man’s trial when he’s losing and is about to be judged by Bigby, that’s when he takes you captive and tries to kill you. To prevent Bigby from dying he has to defend himself. After you make the choice what to do next (for example to “[Rip his head off]”), then the fifth Book of Fable entry will automatically unlock.

Location #6: One day after the trial, at The Woodland Luxury Apartments, Bigby walks up to Snow and talks to her (for example to ask “Can we talk?”), after which the sixth Book of Fable entry will automatically unlock.

Location #7: After talking to Colin before he leaves for the farm, the seventh Book of Fable entry will automatically unlock.

There you go! All 7 Book of Fables in The Wolf Among Us Episode 5 are yours!

Replay Tip:

The trick to unlocking missable Book of Fables is to replay/rewind a section with multiple choices that end up a Book of Fables entry getting unlocked. By replaying it with different choices you may get a second missable Fable Book.

Sometimes to get the final entry you simply need to rewind to a interrogation/fight section to replay it, and either:
1) Play nice and be patient to take the game in a good direction, or
2) Instead become angry and violent to take the evil path.

How to replay a section of the game with different choices?: Because you can only get one of the two at a time. You may get a missing Book of Fables entry by making an alternate choice.

It’s recommended you keep one savefile as your main story progression for the future Episodes. You can either choose to play the chapter how you want and rewind and savefile in a new spot leaving your main savefile intact, OR the easier way is to choose the option you don’t want and just rewind and overwrite your main savefile.
