Description
In this anthology our six retold fairy tales present alternate versions of well known stories, delivering enjoyable life lessons to the reader. In Matthew Sylvester's 'Death's Messengers', a futuristic soldier makes a choice that extends his life, but for a limited period. In Ed Ahern's 'Happily Ever After', the stereotypes of Prince and Princess are wonderfully subverted, just as 'One Hundred Lost Years' by Jennifer Loring teaches us not to judge a book by its cover. In Ready or Not! by Nancy Brashear, we see a dark version of Hansel and Gretel, whilst 'Paved with Gold' by Ed Fortune, shows us through the eyes of Dick Whittington, that all that glitters is not gold. And in Stewart Hotston's 'Rumpeltrollskin', the lesson is . . beware a fool's bargain. So step in and enjoy these brand new twisted fairy tales.
