Book excerpt: Once Upon the Disenchanted Ever After: The Truth about Fairy Tales by Mina Anna Poe This is Mina Anne Poe’s take on the classic fairy tales we grew up with when we were young. These somber and hauntingly enchanted tales are for a new generation of readers. These tales show a more bittersweet side of the “happily ever after” we all dreamed about when we were young, naïve and believed in love at first sight. These stories dispel that myth with every twist the characters must endure to find their perfect ending. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. There are people who are loyal – and ones who will betray. In every tale, there has to be a balance of good and evil. These tales are not as graphic or as disturbing as the ones written by the Brothers Grimm. Poe felt that terrifying the reader was the wrong way to entice them. Although these tales are dark, they are suitable for most readers. These stories have magic and enchantment. Poe has more tales to tell – just waiting patiently for one day!
