- Biografía breve
- Born with a near-pathological hatred of criticism or rejection, Imogen Howson took up fiction writing and found that this ensures she receives plenty of both.
Nevertheless, she continues to write—mostly so she can play with re-imagined fairy tales and myths. Her stories are populated by shape-shifting panthers, mutated teenagers, malevolent sentient shadows, people who can turn into lava, and heroines with beautiful names.
Imogen lives near Sherwood Forest with her partner and two daughters. Fortunately, none of them seems disposed to reject her. Training them not to criticise is taking longer, but she feels confident of eventual success.

All of them sucked me in and leaved me wishing they were longer! The only issue I had with this book was the fact that it didn't tell you when you where switching to a new stories so it left me feeling a little confused. That being said I really enjoyed these stories!… (más)
Esta reseña ha sido escrita por los Primeros Reseñadores de LibraryThing.This book contains five short stories. Some are obvious retellings of well known fairy tales. While the table of contents shows all five stories, the chapter numbers just keep climbing and the only indication that you have started a new story is the change in characters.

My copy also had several other short stories included. All of which were pretty great. All in all, I'd say Imogen Howson is quite the talented writer.
