Charm by Sarah
Pinborough hits the shelves next week (Gollancz £9.99):
“It's Cinderella, but not as you know her... Charm is a re-telling of the Cinderella
story, which takes all the much-loved elements of the classic fairytale (the
handsome prince, the fairy godmother, the enchanted mouse, the beautiful girl
and, of course, the iconic balls) and puts a modern spin on the characters,
their motives and their desires.”
Charm is the
follow-up to Poison, which
re-examined the Snow White myth, and is the middle volume of a trilogy that
concludes with Beauty (due in October
this year). Although part of a cycle, I understand that you should be able to
read the books in any order.
