But here I am getting ahead of myself a bit.ĪLICE ( Amazon) is the first in the Chronicles of Alice series and a great place to get to know the author’s works. There’s enough of both the familiar and the new that they end up being really great reads. One of the great things about storytelling though is that even if the ideas and plots are pillars of stability in our minds, a new tale can still be just as invigorating and fun to read as if everything were brand new. There have been enough versions of both these tales told that it might seem as if we really don’t need another. That first one was a brilliant take on the simple tale of Red Riding Hood, and I was hoping to find more of the same in this one, which is obviously pointed at the classic tale Alice in Wonderland. After reading Christina Henry’s THE GIRL IN RED ( EBR Review), I couldn’t wait to find out what other tales she’d been telling that I didn’t yet know about.
