Character-forming moral fables, Viking and Nordic folk and fairy tales
take the magic of the natural world and combine it with the practical
common sense of the everyday. Good folk are rewarded for their hard
work, the honest and the faithful are valued by the gods: treasured
tales from Hans Christian Andersen, such as 'The Little Match Girl', and
less well known stories such as 'Katie Woodencloak' (a Norwegian Version
of Cinderella) by Asbjørnsen & Moe are some of the heartwarming pieces
in this new selection for the modern reader.

myth, fantasy and science fiction, Flame Tree 451 offers a healthy diet
of werewolves and robots, mad scientists, secret worlds, lost
civilizations and escapist fantasies. Discover a storehouse of tales,
ancient and modern gathered specifically for the reader of the
fantastic.
