Now I’ve never been a fan of the ‘fairy-tale yaoi’ works. I know it’s done extensively in Japan, and because of what I’ve seen from Japan, it’s turned me off. There’s a modest fan base for ‘fairy-tale yaoi’ in West, fans really love it, but for me, the Japanese doujinshika using western fairytales as a basis for their man smut, qualifies as too close too 'stupid'. I don’t care how lovely your artwork is, if your story translated makes no flipping sense, then you get the stupid card and every Japanese ‘fairy-tale yaoi’ book I’ve ever seen, has pretty much qualified. ^^;

So when I got this book, I rolled my eyes…but then I read it. The first story, Faerie Doll Bride, didn’t interest me. It was too close to ‘fairy tale’ for me I guess and so I didn’t even finish. The second story, Magenta, was frigging hot. Very hot. 0_0. Camilla Bruce has an uncanny talent for extremely sexy narrative. The Swan story was a bit too fluffy for me, but I know many fen who’d swoon over it. And the final story, 'Nix', was a short and very well written piece of erotica. It had more imagery than Magenta, but remained just as sexy.

I liked it, and I'm not even a true fan of ‘fairy-tale yaoi’. If you are a fan of this sort of thing, you’ll definitely enjoy it.
