A good retelling of the Snow White fairy tale.
One thing that I did like was the way the author overlapped the Snow White story with other stories (including Aladdin and Hansel and Gretel).
Two things spoiled the story for me. The gratuitous sex of the queen and Snow White with the Huntsman and the contemporary profanity. Both popped me out of "fairy tale" mode and neither really added anything to the story.
