Using Claire de Voyant's words
"You hold two short and captivating literary works in your hands that challenge conventional narratives and offer unique perspectives on classic stories and archetypes. 'The Looking Glass Tales' by Pascal de Napoli and 'Code of Justice-Robin Hood Saga' are not just reimaginations. They are thought-provoking journeys that will pique your curiosity and spark your imagination.
In "The Looking Glass Tales," de Napoli takes us on a journey through a series of reimagined fables, each one subverting traditional expectations and casting a new light on familiar characters. From a compassionate witch in the story of Hansel and Gretel to a vain Cinderella learning the true meaning of beauty, these tales challenge our preconceived notions of heroism and villainy. De Napoli's skilful storytelling invites us to question the binary nature of morality and consider the nuances beneath the surface of these timeless narratives.
Similarly, "Code of Justice - Robin Hood Saga" transplants the legendary tale of Robin Hood into a modern, tech-savvy world where the lines between justice and lawbreaking are increasingly blurred. In this gripping saga, Robin Hood and his band of Merry Hacktivists navigate a complex landscape of corporate greed, political corruption, and social inequality. Through their daring exploits and unwavering commitment to the greater good, they challenge the foundations of power and inspire a new generation of digital revolutionaries."
