The Rapunzel Factor

Sci Fi Fairy Tales #4

by Viola Grace

Born to a prince's mistress and raised by giant ants, Rapunzel's life suddenly gets complicated.

Rapunzel's strange circumstances led to her being a housing for energy, her parentage made her a princess. With the fate of the next Xefar queen in her hands, Rapunzel must go on a journey with a strange Duke who's interest in her hair sparks a reciprocal fascination. Arnolth is unlike any man she has ever spent time with...but that would make sense with her being raised underground in an ant colony.

In this book, the "wicked witch" is an alien insectoid queen who really DOES raise Rapunzel as her daughter, so no wicked about it. And instead of saying "Rapunzel, Rapunzel let down your hair" it's more along the lines of "Chick, can you use a dimmer switch on that hair of yours?" I think this is one of my favs of Ms. Grace's fairytale books. There are evil aliens, but not the ones who raise Rapunzel. And the "handsome prince" is actually a Duke, but hey, nobility is nobility, right? I giggle probably more than I should have with this book, but then again, my family is always telling me that I have a weird sense of humour. Well worth the hour and a half or so it took to read this novella.

So many books!

I found Viola Grace and her books by accident. I have quite the library of them now. They are fun to read, a quick escape from your life. I only have one problem, the books are not long enough. This one, for example, has a whole continuing story line that I can see in my mind, but it's not on paper. The stories are short, but they are well written, I enjoy the style of her writing, just wish there was more of it.

Good start

This book has a good story line but way too short. It needed a little content to complete the story

Short story. 32 pages. Enjoyed the story. Quick one about a princess with hair that has a life of it's own. 3-1/2 stars.

A strange but steaminess take to the Rapunzel fairy tale.

Hair and Spiders?

If you can write stories that have intriguing twists in the concept and plot, then you might have a portion of the talent of Viola Grace.
