具體描述
A thrillingly reimagined fairy tale from the truly magical combination of author Neil Gaiman and illustrator Chris Riddell - weaving together a sort-of Snow White and an almost Sleeping Beauty with a thread of dark magic, which will hold readers spellbound from start to finish. On the eve of her wedding, a young queen sets out to rescue a princess from an enchantment. She casts aside her fine wedding clothes, takes her chain mail and her sword and follows her brave dwarf retainers into the tunnels under the mountain towards the sleeping kingdom. This queen will decide her own future - and the princess who needs rescuing is not quite what she seems. Twisting together the familiar and the new, this perfectly delicious, captivating and darkly funny tale shows its creators at the peak of their talents. Lavishly produced, packed with glorious Chris Riddell illustrations enhanced with metallic ink, this is a spectacular and magical gift. Shortlisted for The CILIP Kate Greenaway Medal 2016

評分##【http://t.cn/RUt0t0z 9f22】有短評說“故事稍微改改就是DW劇本”，你們可以想象有多無聊瞭嗎>< 我好不容易等到JRT齣新語音書而且是gaiman的！結果一個多小時都悶死瞭orz 好想念墳場書TAT
評分看完唯一的感想是女主角不想結婚更想（和矮人一起）去冒險【Chris Riddell的畫好看！
評分##重構童話，對Gaiman來說駕輕就熟，故事某些細節還待斟酌，但挺喜歡結尾一切消停後皇後選擇依舊嚮東。

評分##喜歡把Sleep作為plague的設定和後期的角色反轉。Neil Gaiman的作品給人感覺總是故事新奇但講述趨於平淡。總的來說Gaiman這個人啊品性純良不屑於用餌吊讀者胃口。PS:故事稍微改改就是DW劇本！

評分##goodreads上給差評的大多是被插圖騙瞭以為是重現的L版睡美人吧，覺得還好，帶點女性意識的童話改編故事，反轉的不太意外，就是結尾感覺又挖瞭個坑==老實講Neil Gayman……啊不……是Gaiman的書都不太戳我的點。
