Book excerpt: This clever, dark reimagining of Vasilisa the Beautiful is ideal for fans of The Bear and the Nightingale, Wicked, and Maleficent.A small village is filled with fear after Vasilisa reports seeing a witch in the nearby cursed woods. Neighbors turn on each other, the land turns bone dry, and bodies begin to pile up. Baba Yaga quickly becomes the primary suspect. Meanwhile, Vasilisa uses her beauty and charisma to bewitch the minds and hearts of every other villager. But is she truly a witch or is something else responsible for all of this mayhem? Fairy tales depict Vasilisa as beautiful, brave, and fair. But what if terrible was a better description? Baba Yaga has been called everything from a murderous witch to an ambivalent guardian between the living and the dead. But what if she was simply an observant, skeptical elderly woman who was cast out of society for being different? Vasilisa the Terrible: A Baba Yaga Story encourages readers to look beyond the attractive surface to find the ugly evil hidden within. This dark, reimagined fairy tale was created with adults in mind, although it's also suitable for most young adults. Vasilisa the Terrible is not intended for young children, unless you're comfortable sharing the darker, gruesome fairy tale style with them that was exhibited in the original, uncensored Grimms' Fairy Tales. Vasilisa the Terrible: A Baba Yaga Story is the first Kindle Short Read in the Midnight Myths and Fairy Tales series. This story is 11,000+ words.
