If you think you already know about Rumpelstiltskin, think again. This collection of short stories and poetry reinvents the classic fairy tale in thirteen radically different ways.
Having the power to transform can be a blessing and a curse. In some worlds, gold is a worthless commodity and you'd be better off if you could spin grass into chickens. In others, having the ability to shift types of matter with your mind will get you turned into a lab experiment.
What if, instead of a Miller's Daughter bargaining for gold, the story was about a pregnant woman in war-torn Iraq, bargaining for antibiotics for her sick husband?
Full of origin stories and sequels, ranging from humorous to horrific, you can always count on Timeless Tales to bring the unexpected.
