Once Upon a Fairy Tale by Peter HallettMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
This is my 3rd Peter Hallet book. I have read "There Be Dragons" and "Assault on Saint Valentines" and started reading "Once Upon a Fairy Tale" with my expectations already set high. I am very happy to report those expectations were met and exceeded. This is a fantastic, blood and guts soaked, hyper-violent retelling of classic fairy tales. The struggles between good and evil are constantly suspenseful and there is not one dull moment between the covers.
The deviously evil King of Lies has taken over Fairy Tale Land. His power is fueled by the fact that no one on earth or in Heaven believe Fairy Tales are true. The King of Lies has a host of minions including The Big Bad Wolf and The Three Little Pigs who help him with his plan rule the land forever.
Red Riding Hood, always the rebel, objects to this plan and then stuff gets real and whole lot of bad craziness breaks loose.
This is a great action packed powerful read, and coming in 148 pages it makes for a fast and wonderfully good reading experience.
