Grimm Fairy Tales Volume 1 Review: An engaging revamping of the classic tales - Fairy tales has been capturing our imaginations for centuries. Granted, the brothers Grimm came out with their compilation in the 19th century, but I'm sure they had been passed on by word of mouth for much longer than that. On the surface, they seemed like tales to scare children, but below that they were devised as morality stories, to reflect on the dangers of vice, greed, envy, lust, etc. Naturally, over the course of time, the tales seem dated. Likewise, many of the more common tales - Snow White, Beauty and the Beast, etc.... - have been "Hollywood-ized" over the years, thanks to Walt Disney. Zenescope has taken these traditional tales and applied them to our modern age. Each of the tales were independent of the other, but Zenescope has stepped around this problem by having a central character acting as a guide for those in trouble, presenting them with a specific tale to act as a lesson, in the hopes that they might learn, change their present course and prevent something terrible from happening. While there is plenty of eye candy, in the form of very buxom, often scantily clad, females, there are also scenes of graphic violence and chilling horror - clearly this is not a book to be given to young children, which I hope is clear to most who glance at the cover. Generally each scene is colorful and well detailed, and the engrossing tales might distract you (albeit perhaps only briefly) from the curvacious females gracing the pages. The first tale in the book brings to the modern era the tale of red riding hood, portraying (from what I can tell) the dangers of lust. In this one, I found the artwork somewhat shoddy - the colors were still vibrant, and Ms. Hood's body had a lot more curves to it than I imagined in my childhood days, however the artist clearly had a problem with faces and expressions, which is somewhat disappointing (in one scene, the blonde Hood looks almost Chinese). The second brings to life the tale of Cinderlla. Here we are looking at the dangers of vanity and being mean to others, and ultimately looks at the satisfaction of revenge. I am happy to report that the artwork here was first rate. The third tells the tale of Hansel and Gretel, except this time around it revolves around an ungrateful child (although she happens to be a buxom teen) who leads her brother away from home into the arms of a hideous creature to the brother's ultimate demise. I would say here the tale warns of selfishness and stubbornness. Next comes Rumpelstiltskin, which cautions us against lying. Here, a father lies to get ahead, but instead jeopardizes both himself and his daughter. To escape the situation, the girl enlists the aid of a strange creature, foolishly promising away her firstborn child. The ending of the tale has a brilliant twist (you'll have to read it to find out what it is!) Sleeping Beauty then spins the tale centering around narcissism, lying and using others to achieve your goals. The Robber Bridegroom highlights the danger of jealousy, revolving around the tale of two sisters, one of whom betrays and murders the other to achieve her goal, yet finding, ultimately, that the prize was certainly not what she was expecting. The final short tale, Legacy, is not a Grimm fairy tale, but instead gives us an insight into the character of Sela Mathers, the beautiful (and curvy) woman who crops up throughout the tales trying to help people fix their lives by giving them an appropriate fairy tale to read. I currently have 4 of the books...honestly, after the first I absolutely fell in love with the tales and the vivid artwork, and masterful reworking to fit our modern age. OK, so the hot women did help somewhat in influencing my opinion of the books (hey, I'm a guy!) For those worried about this element, please rest assured that there is no full frontal nudity or hardcore sex scenes....I wouldn't have minded one bit, but I know it bothers some. One word of caution, however. If you do buy this book, handle it somewhat with care - I have had one page fall out due to poor binding, and could see how someone less careful than I could have problems. In all, I highly recommend this book!

The story and the art are not bad but are about as erotic as a dc title. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/14545591-grimm-fairy-tales-volume-1](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/14545591-grimm-fairy-tales-volume-1) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-06-08*
