Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

"These tales handle universal truths but include diversity, humor and even a dash of a modern setting. All the magic, none of the archaic."

-- author, K.A. Miltimore

The Queen's Favorite... reads like a wonderful legend that has been handed down through the generations... A Society of Heartless Women... like a horror story by way of Jane Austen's droll sense of humor about the foibles of high society."

-- author, Helen Whistberry

"Nash has a knack for bringing a new twist to old stories. Not to mention that each story will keep you on edge guessing..."

-- Amazon Reviewer

"...takes us beneath the surface, to explore the darker side of our humanity, under the guise of 'mere fairytales'."

-- Amazon Reviewer

"The author has a fantastic ability to transport you with their words alone."

-- Amazon Reviewer

"...reads like an old-fashioned book of fairy tales, but with a modern twist. Full of lore and magic, it is like a perfect collection of ancient tales passed on through generations."

-- Amazon Reviewer

"The characters are memorable and the stories are wonderful new takes on the classics with a deeper fantasy twist. The women featured are strong and have qualities worth emulating."

-- Amazon Reviewer

"...(a) timeless quality that fairytales have, but were very unique at the same time...from the traditional fairytale style, to Gothic and into modern."

-- Amazon Reviewer
