The Mythology of Grimm by Nathan Robert Brown
GET INSIDE GRIMM.NBC's hit television series Grimm pits modern detective Nick Burkhardt of the Portland Police against a cast of terrifying villains-lifted directly from the pages of classic fairytales. In the world of the show, the classic stories are actually a document of real events, and Nick himself is descended from a long line of guardians, or Grimms, charged with defending humanity from the mythological creatures of the world.
From The Big Bad Wolf to Sleeping Beauty, The Mythology of Grimm explores the history and folkloric traditions that come into play during Nick's incredible battles and investigations-tapping into elements of mythology that have captured our imaginations for centuries.

Naomi Shihab Nye said about Nathan's book, My Salvaged Heart: Brave new world! The sizzle of couplings and uncouplings - attraction and romance, ineffable magnetism, mysterious as ever - but doused with a savory dose of Nathan Brown humor, a tilted long-ranging eye that sees the next bend in the road even when he's standing right here, firmly planted.
