Gwyneth Jones 
Seven Tales and a Fable [EPUB ebook] 

WINNER OF TWO WORLD FANTASY AWARDSA magical apple tree in the mountains. A hopeless king with no people to rule. A woman who loves a god. An unsettling princess.This collection of wonderous fairy tales from award-winning author Gwyneth Jones takes traditional tropes and spins them in the way only she can. Darkness hides in the mundane as much as the magical, and the morals may not be what you’re expecting. Enchanting and chilling in alternate turns, each story will weave a spell and draw you in deep . . .You can find more information on the writing Gwyneth did as Ann Halam on her website:http://www.gwynethjones.uk/HALAM.htm
