Fairy tales take a weird twist in this anthology compiling stories from an all-star cast of fantasy writers, including stories from Neil Gaiman, Charlie Jane Anders and Alison Littlewood. An anthology of unique twists on the fairy tale conceit of the curse, from the traditional to the modern - giving us brand new mythologies as well as new approaches to well-loved fables. Some might shock you, some might make you laugh, but they will all impress you with their originality. With stories from Neil Gaiman, Christina Henry, M.R. Carey, Charlie Jane Anders, Karen Joy Fowler and more.

Some of the stories were quite interesting. The one that stands out is by Christina Henry. A snow white retelling, with a good step mother, an evil prince, and a poisoned apple that was actually helpful? It was quite good, and my favorite story in the book.
