The Ogre's Wife - Fairy Tales for Grownups — Richard Parks

THE OGRE'S WIFE is Richard Parks' first story collection, and was a World Fantasy Award finalist in 2003 in its Obscura Press edition. The introduction was written by award-winning master fantasist Parke Godwin, who has followed the author's career from first bloom. All but one of the stories have been previously published in either magazines (mostly Realms of Fantasy) or anthologies. That one, Doing Time in the Wild Hunt, was written especially for this collection. As a bonus, this Kindle edition contains an appendix with the author's notes on every story in the collection, a feature not found in the print edition.
