Other tales include 'Thickasathumb', which portrays a childless young couple whose wish for a baby is granted in an unexpected way, while 'The Frog King' tells of a rash promise made by a haughty princess to share her bed with a frog, and a fortune is won in 'The Blue Lamp', when a soldier gains a kingdom with the help of a magic lamp.

Book Brother Grimm

Download or read book Brother Grimm written by Craig Russell and published by . This book was released on 2007-01-11 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A girl's body lies, posed, on the pale sand of a Hamburg beach, a message concealed in her hand. 'I have been underground, and now it is time for me to return home...' Jan Fabel, of the Hamburg murder squad, struggles to interpret the twisted imagery of a dark and brutal mind. Four days later, a man and a woman are found deep in woodland, their throats slashed deep and wide, the names 'Hansel' and 'Gretel', in the same, tiny, obsessively neat writing, rolled tight and pressed into their hands. It becomes clear that each new crime is a grisly reference to folk stories collected almost two hundred years ago by the Brothers Grimm. The hunt is on for a serial killer who is exploring the darkest, most fundamental fears hidden in ancient fairy tales. A predator who kills and then disappears into the shadows. A monster we all learned to fear in childhood.

Book Gris Grimly s Tales from the Brothers Grimm

Download or read book Gris Grimly s Tales from the Brothers Grimm written by Jacob Grimm and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2016-07-26 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Brothers Grimm’s fairy tales are brought to life for a new generation of readers in their original, uncut form by the modern master of gothic horror, Gris Grimly. Grimm. The name alone is enough to call to mind any number of the timeless fairy tales collected by brothers Jacob and Wilhelm in the early nineteenth century. These folktales have been told and retold in many forms for over two centuries, and while the particular mix of fantasy, adventure, and wonder that defined their seven-volume collection has endured, the terror, violence, and darkness of the original stories has often been lost in translation. Enter Gris Grimly, who has faithfully reproduced the original text of a selection of tales and adorned them with his own inimitable artwork. The result is a Grimm collection unlike any other, set in a world that is whimsically sinister, darkly vivid, and completely unforgettable.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Allá en aquellos tiempos había una joven muy perezosa que no quería hilar. Su madre se incomodaba mucho; pero no podía hacerla trabajar. Un día perdió la paciencia de manera que llegó a pegarle, y su hija se puso a llorar a gritos. En aquel momento pasaba por allí la Reina, y oyendo los sollozos, mandó detener su coche y entró en la casa preguntando a la madre por qué pegaba a su hija con tanta crueldad, que se oían en la calle los lamentos de la niña. La mujer, avergonzada, no quiso contarle de la pereza de su hija, y le dijo: -No puedo hacerla que suelte el huso ni un solo instante, quiere estar hilando siempre, y yo soy tan pobre que no puedo darle el lino que necesita. -Nada me gusta tanto como la rueca -le respondió la Reina-; el ruido del huso me encanta, dejadme llevar a vuestra hija a mi palacio, yo tengo lino suficiente e hilará todo lo que quiera. La madre consintió en ello con el mayor placer, y la Reina se llevó a la joven. En cuanto llegaron a palacio la condujo a tres cuartos que estaban llenos de arriba abajo de un lino muy hermoso. -Hílame todo ese lino -le dijo-, y cuando esté concluido, te casaré con mi hijo mayor. No te dé cuidado de que seas pobre; tu amor al trabajo es un dote suficiente.
