Review: Snow White from another angle

I love snow white stories.  The way people are able to take the core of the story and elaborate on it or take another angle amazes me.This retelling is much different than others as it is told not by Snow White or by a narrator or any of that.  It's told by a Hunter.  This Hunter has a relationship with the step mother before her marriage to the King.  He lives in the woods around the castle.  Soon after the marriage he, his wife and young daughter get moved into the castle grounds, he as a hunter and his wife as a kitchen worker.  Of course, many years pass and things are going great til that vital moment in any snow white tale, the moment when snow white is supposed to have her heart cut out and given to the Queen.  It's the Hunter that gets called to do this.  Things just go downhill from there for him.It's truly an interesting turn on the regular tellings.  I liked it very much.
