Synopsis
From the fun of the fair to the depths of hell, experience sixteen more curses in this sequel to the bestselling Cursed: An Anthology. A blend of traditional and reimagined curses from fairy-tales to Snow White, from some of the best names in fantasy. In this sequel to the bestselling Cursed: An Anthology are more tales from some of the best names in fantasy.
Following on from the hugely successful first volume, in this book Joe Hill gives us a chilling interpretation of a carnival curse in 'Dark Carousel', Sarah Pinborough offers a hellish curse in 'The Confessor's Tale', both A.C. Wise and Laura Purcell tackle fairy-tale curses from the female protagonists' perspective in 'Shoes as Red as Blood' and 'Awake', while Neil Gaiman gives us a very different take on Snow White in 'Snow, Glass, Apples', Kelley Armstrong draws us into her unique mythos with a troublesome toy in 'Just Your Standard Haunted Doll Drama', and Helen Grant imagines a curse on a much bigger scale in 'A Curse is a Curse.'
