Once upon a time is no longer safe... In Echoes of Ever After, nine authors breathe new life into classic fairy tales through Gothic retellings steeped in shadow and reflections. Beneath enchanted kingdoms, whispered legends, familiar stories twist into something hauntingly new, where mirrors conceal dangerous truths and happily ever after comes at a cost. Each tale explores reflection in its own chilling way—through fractured identities, forgotten memories, cursed glass, distorted love, and the darkness lurking beneath beauty itself. This unforgettable anthology invites you to step beyond the familiar, and into the shadows waiting on the other side of the mirror... Mind your reflection.
