Into the Woods by Lyn Gardner
A twisty-turny, not-quite fairy tale that is sure to please, now in paperback!Storm, Aurora, and Anything Eden live in a decaying mansion on the edge of the wilds with their erstwhile father and indolent mother. When an accident leaves them orphaned and at the mercy of the sinister Dr. DeWilde, these three courageous and eccentric sisters are forced to flee into the woods, where they encounter kidnappers, sweets-filled orphanages, mountains of ice, diamond mines, and some ravenously hungry wolves.
Taking inspiration from numerous fairy tales and weaving them into a wholly original story, Into the Woods is a whirlwind of a novel, full of imaginative happenings and dastardly deeds.
Lyn Gardner was born in the United Kingdom. She works as a theater critic for The Guardian and attends the theater five or six nights a week, which should leave her with no time to write books. She and her two kids have one venerable goldfish (there were two, but one died tragically) and a horse, who is the family's most demanding, temperamental, and costly member. This is an excerpt from the Hardcover edition.
