This was an interesting collection, featuring several stories I had never previously encountered. I found The Brown Owl to be of particular interest. It featured a complex, empowered heroine and surprising diversity, both of which I was pleased to see in a Victorian text. Altogether, an interesting read. I certainly want to continue with the Pantheon Fairy Tale & Folklore Library collection.
