A thrillingly reimagined fairy tale from the truly magical combination of author Neil Gaiman and illustrator Chris Riddell - weaving together a sort-of Snow White and an almost Sleeping Beauty with a thread of dark magic, which will hold readers spellbound from start to finish. On the eve of her wedding, a young queen sets out to rescue a princess from an enchantment. She casts aside her fine wedding clothes, takes her chain mail and her sword and follows her brave dwarf retainers into the tunnels under the mountain towards the sleeping kingdom. This queen will decide her own future - and the princess who needs rescuing is not quite what she seems. Twisting together the familiar and the new, this perfectly delicious, captivating and darkly funny tale shows its creators at the peak of their talents. Lavishly produced, packed with glorious Chris Riddell illustrations enhanced with metallic ink, this is a spectacular and magical gift. Shortlisted for The CILIP Kate Greenaway Medal 2016
##【http://t.cn/RUt0t0z 9f22】有短评说“故事稍微改改就是DW剧本”,你们可以想象有多无聊了吗>< 我好不容易等到JRT出新语音书而且是gaiman的!结果一个多小时都闷死了orz 好想念坟场书TAT
##披着童话故事的皮的女权主义propaganda哈哈哈。不过主张女性不要被旧有的stereotype束缚,要勇敢地按照自己的意志来活着,还是挺正能量的。
##喜欢把Sleep作为plague的设定和后期的角色反转。Neil Gaiman的作品给人感觉总是故事新奇但讲述趋于平淡。总的来说Gaiman这个人啊品性纯良不屑于用饵吊读者胃口。PS:故事稍微改改就是DW剧本!
##16/12 邪恶与纯洁是我 逃离与勇气也是我
##重构童话,对Gaiman来说驾轻就熟,故事某些细节还待斟酌,但挺喜欢结尾一切消停后皇后选择依旧向东。

##原来是新编童话,这个白雪公主带着小矮人们拯救里了世界~ 想起童话镇的片段了,这才是真正的公主哇~
##有更多女王心理描写就适合成人了。不过给12岁以上小朋友看的书不可能太深刻。另外吐槽购书店五折买价格跟亚马逊商店一个价!看来以后只能亚马逊和kindle了
