Book Description:
THE FAIRY TALE SERIES
Created by Terri Windling
ONCE UPON A TIME...
...fairy tales were written for young and old alike; it is only in the last century that they have been deemed fit only for children and stripped of much of their original violence, sensuality, and power to frighten and delight.
Patricia C. Wrede, the best-selling author of Caught In Crystal and other beloved fantasy novels, brings Snow White and Rose Red back to an adult audience, in this romantic and magical retelling set in the enchanted forests of England at the time of Queen Elizabeth.
Tor Books is proud to present the latest offering in the Fairy Tale Series -- a growing library of beautifully-designed original novels by acclaimed writers of fantasy and horror, each retelling a classic tale such as Snow White and Rose Red, Briar Rose, and Tam Lin in interesting -- often startling -- new ways.

Just outside London, a mother and her 2 daughters use herbs from the land of Faerie to make cough syrups and other useful medicines, but they keep those ingredients secret for fear of being called witches. They end up meeting someone from the land of Faerie who needs their help. They try help, even though they could be hanged for it. Full of fantasy, magic and suspense. Very enjoyable once you get used to words like thee, and. Great weekend read.
