    About this ebook

    Welcome to Fairy Tale Fusion.
    Where things get messy in the Riding Hood.

    What if the characters in Fairy Tales existed? What if they lived and breathed in a place called Fairyland, a setting not too divergent from our world, situated next to Wonderland and down the lane from Camelot?

    Meet Detective Piper, member of the Fairyland Metro Police. His job, to ferret out the suspects and investigate crime on the streets and in the lanes of Fairyland. Along with Officer Simon, he’s hard at work, searching for a missing pumpkin, hunting for an arsonist, wondering what the future holds in a series of crystal ball robberies, and dealing with spells, curses and other strange happenings.

    His cases, and others like them, are the headlines of the day, brought to you by FTN news anchors Spider Bramble and Aurora Gossamer, with entertainment correspondent Lucinda Lovedust and reporter Chip Charming. Keep up-to-date on the latest information out of Fairyland and its adjacent suburbs, and the recent hubbub with trolls, princesses, fairies and their ilk.

    And after leaving Fairyland, you’ll journey to a place where toys are born... to be bad. When spells go wrong and playthings turn mean, where clown dolls would kill to meet you and a Rubik’s cube holds a cosmic secret.

    If you survive the toy box, then head out to party with some elves (if you can outlast the celebration), battle in a far, far away galaxy, play “find the dragon”, and discover how they do crime and punishment in Oz.

    And remember, always be nice to your Fairy Godmother.

    A. F. Stewart

    A steadfast and proud sci-fi and fantasy geek, A. F. Stewart was born and raised in Nova Scotia, Canada and still calls it home. The youngest in a family of seven children, she always had an overly creative mind and an active imagination. She favours the dark and deadly when writing—her genres of choice being dark fantasy and horror—but she has been known to venture into the light on occasion. As an indie author she’s published novellas and story collections, with a few side trips into poetry and non-fiction.

      I received this book in exchange for an honest review. I enjoyed this book immensely. A.F. Stewart gave the familiar fairy tale characters a dark side, and it was quite the treat. It was written well, except for a couple of typos, but that does not stop the enjoyment that I felt reading these tales. I highly recommend this book.

    There is a manhunt on for the First Little Pig, in connection with a tragic domestic incident that left the other two Pig brothers butchered. A late night dispute, over what seems to have been long simmering family grievances, went terribly wrong, resulting in the stabbing death of two of the brothers Pig.

This is the latest in a series of unsuccessful appeals on behalf of the accused, convicted last year of murdering his wife and stuffing her body in a hollowed-out pumpkin. With this newest loss, it seems Peter will serve out his life sentence in prison.

    And now over to our entertainment news desk...

    Hello, I’m Lucinda Lovedust with the latest entertainment news from FTN.

    Divorce proceedings were finalized yesterday between Snow White and Prince Charming. The seemingly happy marriage fell apart last year when extramarital affairs came to light. Scandal erupted when a front-page exposé hit the newsstands, shocking the fairy world with explicit details of the ongoing relationship between Snow White and Grumpy Dwarf, and revealing photos of Prince Charming cavorting with the Huntsman.

    On a happier note, the wedding of Jack and Jill was held this afternoon with perfect fairytale flourish. The pair were wed, surrounded by family, in a hilltop ceremony. The bride wore a gown designed by Tailor Fashions.

    In other news, Wonderland is abuzz with the revelation that the Mad Hatter and Alice are engaged to be married. The pair have been conducting a clandestine affair for years and only recently decided to make it legal and go public.
