Well this was a fun little book. To be honest, i am not a big sci-fi reader, and so the style of writing really stuck out for me. I especially enjoyed the weirder stories, like the one with the collection agency and the 'wolfish' woman, the one about rapunzel and breaking out of the mould, and gilly the goose girl was also great! I wish that the collaborators in this collection had claimed one fairytale (or a mixture) instead of having two court cases about jack and the beanstalk (plus on from the point of view of the castle, which was interesting), plus a few about rumplestiltskin. Got a bit repetitive, i must say. But on the whole i thoroughly enjoyed reading this book! Thanks, puppymummy, for starting this ray--- loads of fun! ************************* Nov. 18: After much searching for the next in line for this ring (thanks for the help and patience puppymummy!), this has finally been popped in the mail this morning! Sorry for the delay! |

Oh! I'm delighted, surprised and excited, all rolled into one!Delighted because this book was the very first bookring I ever signed up for and the story sounds like such fun. Surprised, becaues that tangledthreads is very clever and pulled one over on me completely. She and I had just done a trade, so she had my address, knew it was current, and thus didn't PM me that it was coming. Don't tell Netstation or antof9 that you pulled one over on me- my Queen of Sttealth reputation will go down the toilet! Excited, because I only have a chapter or two of the previous ring to finish, and then I can settle in with this book. It promises to be a rainy weekend, all the better for curling up with a book. I shall write when done. Thanks to puppymummy for starting the ring and to all who have kept it in such good shape and sent it along. And a special thanks to tangledthreads for making my day!

WEll! That certainly was fun! I read a little bit here, a little bit there, dabbling into the worlds of alternate fairy tale universes. I think my faavorites were the ones about Gilly Goose Girl (I agree- true princes are not always royalty) and the one about Evil King Chuck. The way the authors tied up several stories together was fun- I always had thought it odd that all princes seemed to be named "Charming", but now understand why!Will be sending this off in tomorrow's post to BigBird2002. The cartoon (if the picture turns out) is one of my favorite fairy tale spoofs. If it is copyrighted, sorry! The artist's signature is in hte corner, but I can't read it |
