Evil is a point of view, this is the over reaching concept of this group of stories. First it's not necessary to read the other stories in this series but I personally would suggest reading Snow White Sorrow before this collection. I feel like this collection is added to by reading that novel first. Next I have to commend Mr. Jace for keeping all of the various characters versions of the truth separate and consistent. It is truly amazing seeing the layers that continue to unfold with each new story and watching them mesh with each other. As with other stories in this series these tales combine history, fairy tales, and modern legends in the most compelling and enjoyable ways. It also introduces us to new characters in this ever expanding cast and shows past characters in new lights. I also like the pacing of these prequels, they are quick and pack just the right amount of punch. This set also sneaks in some humor. As in previous reviews I can't express how much I recommend these books to people who enjoy differing takes on classic fairy tales.
