It's the day after Christmas and I'm already drooling after more books. But really, who wouldn't want this? I LOVE fairy tale retelling and to have three put into a giant book... oh, me gusta.
Though I could have used a less stereotypical cover. Oh well.
What do you guys think?
Cameron Dokey does some great retellings (Wild Orchid was my fav) so i will have to check this out when it releases!

Dokey did the best retellings for the Once Upon a Time is Timeless S&S line. Her first chapters are always cliche "this is me, blah blah" things, but after, she provides a great story. I really enjoyed Belle, although I wished that it would have had another good hundred-or-so pages to it to really flesh out the amazing idea. If you like this bind-up, check out her other one for sure. A great deal for a great author. :)
ReplyDeleteSunlight and Shadow is my favorite of the three. Not only is it a superb retelling, but it gets bonus points for being odd source material-- it's on the only retelling of Magic Flute that I know of!
ReplyDeleteI wish this series was still ongoing-- I am such a huge fan. Maybe if the bind-ups get a good audience, we'll get some new titles?
I love this cover so much-gorgeous dress is all I need to see!
ReplyDeleteSounds like someone has moved on to the NEXT holiday much like our local stores...Valentine's Day anyone? (Oye.) Seriously though, sounds interesting enough and it's the first time I've laid eyes on it; thanks for the share! ^_^
