Review
"Rebecca Guay's curvaceous pencil drawings will draw fans to this worthwhile collection of sensuous fantasy." Kirkus May 1, 2008 (Kirkus Reviews )
"Twisted, clever, and artfully written, these are high-quality additions to the fractured fairy-tale genre." Booklist, April 15, 2008 (Booklist, ALA )
Product Description
" . . . and they lived happily ever after."
Remember the fairy tales you put away after you found that no princess is as beautiful as common sense and happy endings are just the beginning?
Well, the old tales are back, and they've grown up! Black Pearls brings you the stories of your childhood, told in a way you've never heard before. Instead of lulling you to sleep, they'll wake you up—to the haunting sadness that waits just inside the windows of a gingerbread cottage, the passion that fuels a witch's flight, and the heartache that comes, again and again, at the stroke of midnight.
Make no mistake: these stories are as dark as human nature itself. But they shine, too, lit with the fire of our dreams and our hunger for magic.
