Never After Chris Manning

Three fairy tales unlike anything you've ever read before.* * *Red Greta by James Agee Jr. Life is dismal for Greta and her brother Hans after he signs a magical contract with a witch. The siblings are bound to one another and the witches life-altering demands. With memories of how things once were, and the hope for a better tomorrow, will Greta allow the witch to destroy their lives completely or will she take back the life that is rightfully her own?* * *The Place Where Nightmares Come True by Chris ManningWhen Lacey and her brother Patrick stop at a roadside tourist attraction, a medieval village based on the Grimm's fairy tales, they find themselves caught up in a terrifying world where fantasy and reality are the same. In this reimagined version of Hansel and Gretel, a happy ending is far from guaranteed.* * *The Frog Princess by Katie JohnsAn adventurous retelling of the Frog Prince fairy tale; young Prince Leander comes into possession of a talking frog. Being of a very practical mentality, the young prince first disdains the amphibian until he accepts to assist with a quest. By his father, the king's orders, brawny and brash older brothers, Princes Cassian and Julian must accompany Prince Leander and the frog on their way. All of whom are escorted by a band of fascinating knights. On their journey, the young princes grow up, resolve their own differences, save a dying kingdom, and take their royal places in the fantasy world.
