Oh. You've taken my most beloved fairy-tale and gave it a new spin, staying so true to the style, the emotion and the ideas, that now I have tears in my eyes.
I love clever retellings and I admire people who do them well as it's so hard to maintain the balance between one story and the other. Here the characters fit stunningly, both these serious ones and those serving rather as humour reliefs. It's unbelievable how few details needed to be changed to merge these two universes. Hats off to the author. ;-)
Can't wait to see who will play the role of the Little Robber Girl. I'm sure (s)he will fit wonderfully.
