Fairest of All-Villains, Book 1: A Tale of the Wicked Queen (Villains, #1)

by Serena Valentino

For anyone who's seen Walt Disney's Snow White, you'll know that the Wicked Queen is one evil woman! After all, it's not everyone who wants to cut out their teenage step-daughter's heart and have it delivered back in a locked keepsake box. (And even if this sort of thing is a common urge, we don't know many people who have acted upon it.)

Now, for the first time, we'll examine the life of the Wicked Queen and find out just what it is that makes her so nasty. Here's a hint: the creepy-looking man in the magic mirror is not just some random spooky visage-and he just might have something to do with the Queen's wicked ways!

A fun villain story

I really enjoyed this story. It’s not the Snow White story we know for most of the book. I loved the Evil Queen.

I would recommend this for anyone who wants a fun light retelling.

I picked this rating because some of the plot points and the characters, particularly Snow White and the sister’s could have been explained more. Not only their relationship with the queen, but the relationships with each other.
