The award-winning editors of Snow White, Blood Red return us to
distinctly adult realms of myth and the fantastic — with 18 wondrous works
that cloak the magical fictions we heard at grandma's knee in mantles of
darkness and dread. From Roger Zelansky's delightful tale of Death's disobedient
godson to Peter Straub's blood-chilling examination of a gargantuan Cinderella
and her terrible twisted "art," here are stories strange and miraculous —
remarkable modern storytelling that remold our most cherished childhood fables
into things sexier, more sinister... and more appealing to grown-up tastes and
sensibilities.
