Here we have 18 erotic encounters of a fantastical nature, each as amazing as the one before it, making my job as reviewer really tough. Therefore, I’m just going to spotlight my top two picks in descending order (but trust me, every encounter is worth a read!). “Big Bad Wolf” by Alana Noël Voth — I have a major jones for werewolves so immediately I knew this would make my top two, but it wasn’t until I began reading that it became #1. “Big Bad Wolf” is an excerpt from Alana’s forthcoming novel of the same name and centers around Dillon, a bar owner who has recently noticed that a white wolf has taken up residence on his property. Despite hearing stories of missing chickens and close encounters of the wolf and children, Dillon continues to care for the animal. The wolf even begins sleeping in his bed and one morning he awakes to a naked woman where the wolf had been…and titillating hotness ensues. Alana is a marvelous writer and I adore Dillon (which is not really a big surprise seeing as how he is based on Sam Merlotte from True Blood and I am a massive–massive!!!!–Sam Merlotte fangirl). This story left me desperately wanting the novel. I can haz it now? “Her Hair Is A Net, Woven” by Shanna Germain — This short story tells about the waterman’s daughter, a mythical immortal woman who’s appearance at the town’s market gives an omen for the fate of the village’s crops. Her husband sleeps a hundred years in a day and when he wakes, will bring the storms. Together they will sit and she will crush a needle into palm and in the blood will be the face of the next man to drown … but will it be the villager she is secretly trysting with while her husband sleeps? The water imagery in this story is so beautifully provocative. I think this one above all felt most like a fairy tale to me. Overall, a wonderful collection of adult fairy tales which includes something for everyone. http://www.read-all-over.net/fiction/erotic-fiction/fairy-tale-lust-kristina-wri... We see the words "fairy tale," and we automatically think of a frivolous, fluffy piece of fantasy. Scratch the surface, however, and we learn the fairy tale contains all the stuff our dreams and nightmares are made of, all the stuff of life: birth, death, love, lust, starvation, humiliation, triumph, victory and defeat. Like our cherished religious mythologies, fairy tales tell us who we are at our very centers and what we might need...or secretly desire. It's only appropriate, then, that fairy tales grow up with us, and make the transition to our adult bedtime stories. Cleis Press seems to be particularly talented in this field. First Cleis brought us Mitzi Szereto's 'In Sleeping Beauty's Bed,' a fun collection of naughty fairy tales set in a faraway land of a long time ago. 'Fairy Tale Lust' is something different. Yes, some of the tales are set in a faraway land of long, long ago, but there are also contemporary tales so realistically told they might be happening next door, right now. It's nearly impossible to pick a favorite from among this seductive collection of folkloric fantasies. "How the Little Mermaid Got Her Tail Back" is as beguiling as a siren. "Three Times" is breathtaking. "The Return" is a special kind of verbal enchantment, as is editor Kristina Wright's "In the Dark Woods," a modern-day morality play that plays out on a mattress. Cute comes into this fairy tale collection: see, for example, Jeremy Edwards' twist on Goldilocks and the Three Bears. More often than not, though, cute is merely an enticing cover for the hidden well of deep, dark human fantasy. I was pretty intrigued by the idea of this book...erotica meets fairy tales and I thought the two a pretty natural match. Unfortunately the tales are all far too short and leave the reader confused and the characters painfully underdeveloped. That would all be ok, if they were just short hot stories...but while I enjoyed some of them, most of them weren't all that hot either. No two stories were the same which is a positive thing so surely every reader can find one or two at least that they can enjoy. I liked "The Gingerbread Man", "Three Times", and "The Return" the most. I think "Big Bad Wolf" would have made an amazing story, but I was just left confused by the resolution. The stories as a whole feel entirely too rushed. You can have a good short story that is fulfilling and complete but this collection isn't an example of those. This wasn't a waste of time to read but its not something I would have been happy paying money for either. Not enough fairy tale nor enough lust. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
