When I read about the twisted tales series, I figured the "twisted" part was because it was a what if scenario. What a rookie mistake.
First and foremost I need to get this off my chest. THE WHAT IF SCENARIO IS NOT ABOUT ALADDIN NOT FINDING THE LAMP IT IS ABOUT JAFAR GETTING THE LAMP. Ok so the tag line doesn't really effect the book but it irked me when I was reading because that what is this didn't happen, still happened.
For the actual plot I found that I really engaging and can see why people really like this series. This was also a lot darker then I was expecting with death and other things happening, mind you that this is also a Disney book. It also gave me final book in a series vibes which does make me want to look into Liz Braswell's catalog and see if they have any series to read.
Great read to end a jammed packed month.
