What happens when fairy tales get real? Things are about to get real - and twisted - by two very different authors. Twisted tales based loosely on the classics. Can you face reality?

Historia
Why we think it’s a great listen: It’s easy to say that when it comes to sci-fi you either love it or you hate it. But with Ender’s Game, it seems to be you either love it or you love it.... The war with the Buggers has been raging for a hundred years, and the quest for the perfect general has been underway for almost as long. Enter Andrew "Ender" Wiggin, the result of decades of genetic experimentation.

Historia
In this prequel episode from Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials universe, Lee Scoresby—Texan aeronaut and future friend to Lyra Belacqua—is just 24 years old, and he's recently won his hot-air balloon in a poker game. He finds himself floating North to the windswept Arctic island of Novy Odense, where he and his hare daemon Hester are quickly tangled in a deadly plot involving an oil magnate, a corrupt mayoral candidate, and Lee's longtime nemesis from the Dakota Country, a hired killer with at least twenty murders to his name.

Imagine it were possible to bring the characters from a book to life. Not like when you listen to an audiobook with such enchantment that the characters seem to jump off the pages and into your bedroom...but for real. Imagine they could actually climb out of the pages and into our world. Then imagine if those characters brought their world into ours.

Historia
Few winter stories are more affecting than Hans Christian Andersen's The Little Match Girl. Written in 1848, and strictly speaking a New Year's Eve story, it showed so clearly then, as it does now, that the Christmas holidays do not represent fireside, food, and presents for all. This story never fails to move, yet it somehow avoids serious sentimentality.

In Gelia City, magic is music: a constant ever-changing melody known as the strains. Hereditary ability to use the strains divides the city into two classes: the wealthy Highmost, who can access the full potential of the strains, and the common tradesmen, who are limited to mundane spells, known as beggar magic. With the help of the strains, common teen Leilani rescues and befriends a gifted Highmost girl, Zebedy.

Eighty-nine-year-old Isabelle McAllister has a big favor to ask her hairdresser, Dorrie. She wants the black single mother to drop everything and drive her from Texas to a funeral in Ohio - tomorrow. Dorrie, fleeing problems of her own and curious about Isabelle’s past, agrees, not knowing it will be a journey that changes both their lives. Isabelle confesses that, as a teen in 1930s Kentucky, she fell in love with Robert Prewitt, a would-be doctor and the black son of her family’s housekeeper - in a town where blacks weren’t allowed after dark. The tale of their forbidden relationship and its tragic consequences just might help Dorrie find her own way.

For 12-year-old Emily, the best thing about moving to San Francisco is that it's the home city of her literary idol: Garrison Griswold, book publisher and creator of the online sensation Book Scavenger (a game where books are hidden in cities all over the country and clues to find them are revealed through puzzles). Upon her arrival, however, Emily learns that Griswold has been attacked and is now in a coma, and no one knows anything about the epic new game he had been poised to launch.

Not a bad retelling of classics.
It probably would have helped if I knew all the stories but I found them entertaining nonetheless. Some modern twists on the classics in multiple short story format. I definitely found it interesting enough and the narration was excellent. Not the happy ending style, but some excellent twists! I enjoyed the girls in the closet and Hansel and Gretel the best. I received a free review copy of this book at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Twisted Genius!!
What a great collaboration of two amazing authors! I love this collection. The way these authors twisted these classic fairy tales is perfection. A fast and easy listen that holds you captivated from start to finish. The narrator is fabulous at bringing the story and characters to life with easy to understand and distinguishable voices. I look forward to more from both Authors and narrator.

New twists on old tales
I liked that the authors first give you a synopsis of each fairytale before each gives you her own version. Many of these stories are not very cheery, just like the tales they are based on. The strong point of this collection is the lively narration by Tiffany Marz.

Meh
Overall I was really underwhelmed by this. It really needed a good editor. It felt like the author just didn’t know how to properly finish a story, they all seem to just drop off. The narration was fake sounding to me. I didn’t care for it.

Not your kids' fairy tales
I was given this free review copy audio book at my request and have voluntarily
left this review.
So, this was an interesting concept. Retelling of classic fairy tales in a modern setting with some sort of dark twist. For the most part, I really liked them. Some more than others, sure, but I found myself entertained throughout the 3 and a half hours of this book.

O.K. I like this!
Very interesting concept. Funny thing I had only heard 1 or 2 of those fairy tails. The idea of bringing those stories, some that I assume are hundreds of years old, into a modern version lent itself to much laughing on my part. Also, they spun me off into other modern outcomes. I can recomend this book to seventeen year old's and above. Also, I listened to the audio version, which gets through my mind better than if I read it myself. Now for the obligatory: I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.
