Review # 1 was written on 2016-08-13 00:00:00 Stephanie Schwinghamer Uneven collection of tales. I liked the ones like folktales or fairytales and disliked the others--most of them. I couldn't give a higher rating since I disliked or thought mediocre over half of a 19 short story collection. This was the author's first attempt at a collection I believe and she was mixed in her success. I really liked Dreams of the Compass Rose and thought this not much of a comparison. I liked the stories: "Beauty and her beast": a retelling of the fairytale with role reversal. "Slaying of winter": a journey to the North and killing of the God of Winter. "Lady of the Castle": Who is the true heir to the dead Lord of the Castle? "I Want to Paint the Sky": a contest between two rival Master Painters. "Swans": a retelling of tale similar to fairytale of the seven swans. "Story of Love": a princess discovers what love is.
