review 1: I gave the overall book a 4 star rating because the premise for the book was outstanding and the authors did a great job in re-writing a bit of history to fit into many different genres from fantasy to horror to just a mixture of both and more. Terribly Twisted Tales, the title says it all. If you liked fairy tales when you were younger, then you'll love the twist put on those fairy tales by some really awesome authors. As this is a short story collection, I do have my favorites and those are as follows: Once They Were Seven by Chris Pierson A Charming Murder by Mary Louise EklundWhat's in a Name by Kathleen WatnessLost Child by Steven D SullivanAs for those I didn't mention, I enjoyed reading them very much, these four just kind of stuck out to me for some reason. I tru... morely suggest that if you read this book that you don't skip any stories, they are all great works.
review 2: Eighteen familiar fairy tales are re-imagined in this collection of short stories.Do you like the idea of the three bears recruiting Golda Lockes to help run their moonshine still? Have you ever wondered what the tale of Hansel & Gretel would be like from the witch’s point of view? Ever wanted to know what Snow White would be like without the happy ending?If so, then you will find these stories a real treat. less
