    About this ebook

    These forty modern fairy tales for grownups explore issues of truth, power, and love in a proudly vulgar, unpretentious display of wild sex, gore, and dark humor. Although filled with zombies, excrement, and, yes, flamethrowers, the collection reflects the author's familiarity with the fairy tale genre and his desire to push it in new directions.
