A Kindle Serial where a new installment was sent out every two weeks. It just wrapped up on October 24 and will be in paperback early next year if you don't have a kindle.
Fairy tales are real and all around us, happening all the time. Many of them are fairly benign but then there are those that have catastrophic repercussions like the Snow Whites, Pied Pipers, Sleeping Beauties, etc. For those tales, there is the ATI Management Bureau. They work tirelessly to find and thwart those tales or at least limit the damage they can do. But what happens when the tales start getting manipulated and don't follow the established patterns? How is a team that consists of an activated Pied Piper, a suspended Snow White, a manifested Shoemaker, a suspended Wicked Step-Sister, and a normal human supposed to shut things down?
I was skeptical about the whole serial thing but I love this author so decided to give it a chance. Most of the time it was not left with a cliff-hanger at the end where you wanted to strangle someone for two weeks but I always wanted to know what was going to happen next. This last episode had me checking my kindle every hour to see if it had updated yet so I could finally see how things turned out. I found it an interesting concept, nicely done and tied together. I really hope that Ms. McGuire finds a way to continue playing in this world.
