La portentosa imaginación de Neil Gaiman junto con la exuberante expresividad del ilustrador Chris Riddell dan como resultado esta maravillosa novela.

Una asombrosa reinvención de Blancanieves y La bella durmiente con una pincelada de nigromancia, que cautivará a los lectores desde la primera página hasta su insólito final.

Era una de esas brujas de los bosques, condenada a la marginación mil años atrás, una mala persona. Maldijo a la pequeña el día que nació, para que, cuando la joven cumpliera dieciocho años, al pincharla con un huso en el dedo se durmiera para siempre.

A vuelo de pájaro, era el reino más cercano al de la reina, pero ni siquiera los pájaros volaban sobre él.

Esta historia tal vez os resulte familiar: hay una joven reina a punto de casarse. Hay algunos enanos buenos, fuertes y valientes; hay un castillo rodeado de una maraña de espinos; y hay una princesa a la que, según se rumorea, una bruja condenó al sueño eterno.

Pero aquí nadie espera que aparezca un noble príncipe montado en su fiel corcel y dispuesto a arreglar las cosas. Si una joven reina quiere demostrarse a sí misma que puede ser una heroína, rescatar a una princesa es una ocasión perfecta...

Este cuento de hadas está urdido con un hilo de magia negra q

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

In a beautiful collaboration, New York Times bestselling author, Newbery Medal champion, and Carnegie Medal award-winner, Neil Gaiman, and illustrator Chris Riddell, have created a thrillingly reimagined fairy tale, "told in a way only Gaiman can", featuring "stunning metallic artwork" (GeekInsider.com).

The result is a beautiful and coveted edition of The Sleeper and the Spindle, which the Guardian calls "a refreshing, much-needed twist on a classic story."

In this captivating and darkly funny tale, Neil Gaiman and Chris Riddell have twisted together the familiar and the new as well as the beautiful and the wicked to tell a brilliant version of Snow White's (sort of) and Sleeping Beauty's (almost) stories.

This story was originally published (without illustrations) in Rags & Bones (Little, Brown, 2013). This is the first time it is being published as an illustrated stand-alone edition. And the book is a beautiful work of art.
