It seems like the thing to do when writing a review of a parody would be to write a parody of a review... but that would be a bit too clever for me by half. "Attack of the Fairytale Zombies" is not that, by which I mean it is clever, but not *too* clever. Yes, it's a ribald and rambunctious parody of "Save the Kingdom from nasty creatures" fantasy, overblown zombie apocalypse stuff, and fairytales both old and new. It is often hilarious and frequently foul, and yet even beyond that, it still manages somehow to be a good, solid story with engaging characters you'll find yourself rooting for - even when the author may at any given moment point out how ridiculous they and their plight is. PJ Jones tells a funny, irreverent, and truly whacky story, and yet it still manages to be a good story throughout. It's fun to watch, or rather, to read.
