Beauty: A retelling of the story of Beauty and the Beast: my favourite above all of them! Spellbounding.
Rose Daughter
Deerskin
The Spindle's End
The Door in the Hedge: I liked a lot the two retellings of The Princess and the Frog and The twelve dancing princesses. Actually all four stories were good, but I thought the end of the Stolen Princess was more than expected. Just me, of course.
Mercedes Lackey
Fire Rose: an all time favourite. Not really a fairy tale, yet it is a Beauty and the Beast story... sort of :)
The Black Swan: based on The Swan Lake, but seen on Odile's point of view (far more interesting if you ask me).
