Narrative To Books Alice (The Chronicles of Alice #1)

A mind-bending new novel inspired by the twisted and wondrous works of Lewis Carroll...

In a warren of crumbling buildings and desperate people called the Old City, there stands a hospital with cinderblock walls which echo the screams of the poor souls inside.

In the hospital, there is a woman. Her hair, once blond, hangs in tangles down her back. She doesn’t remember why she’s in such a terrible place. Just a tea party long ago, and long ears, and blood…

Then, one night, a fire at the hospital gives the woman a chance to escape, tumbling out of the hole that imprisoned her, leaving her free to uncover the truth about what happened to her all those years ago.

Only something else has escaped with her. Something dark. Something powerful.

And to find the truth, she will have to track this beast to the very heart of the Old City, where the rabbit waits for his Alice.

Rate Containing Books Alice (The Chronicles of Alice #1)

This is a bizarre, violent story, one full of menace and dark magic. It's trippy the way that every Alice book should be, and full of nightmarish images and themes. I loved it for the most part...but. BUT. I have one problem with it, and it's a pretty major one: the book is extremely rape-y. Huge trigger warning if you are bothered by sexual violence of any sort, because it's everywhere in this world, both blatant and implied, and both active and imagined. While I've always thought most fairy

Currently $1.99 on Amazon: April 5, 2018. I really enjoyed this!This is a dark fantasy loosely based on Alice in Wonderland. The world is divided into two: The New City, where the wealthy elite live in clean neighborhoods that have not been destroyed by pollution and crime. The Old City is run by crime bosses, the most powerful are named Cheshire, Rabbit, Caterpillar, Walrus, and The Carpenter. Prostitution, human slavery, fight clubs, and general depression run rampant. When the story begins,

Review: 1.25/5Well, as a retelling, that did a rather curious job.I was so excited to read this book! It's even on my "can't wait to read" shelf. There is something about the idea of a retelling in which Alice has escaped from an asylum that so fits the wondrous aura of the original book. Yet this did not stick to any of the plot-points, truly. Which was very disappointing. I imagine it would be extremely difficult to manufacture a narrative from the nearly unrelated curiosities of the original

Bring it, Alice! I'm not scared. Oh, how I should have.TRIGGER WARNING : Graphic rape (a lot) and violence►By no means is Alice a flawless book, and I'm not gonna lie, the first chapters, if they hooked me, confused me as hell in the same time. Who are these people? What do they want? What are their relationships like? Where the fuck are they? What's this world, where human traffic, rape and violence are common practices, where the awful way women are treated makes me want to scream? To be

Alice as retold that she had returned from her trip to wonderland with stories that were taken as nonsensical babbling by her family who; being well-To-do, decided to just lock her away.Ten years later a fire starts at the asylum, leading Alice to escape and journey to the old world which is heavily shadowed by four sex slavery king pins with distasteful and unforgivable fetishesI turned on spoilersHeres some space just in caseI might have done it wrongSpoilersAlthough I thoroughly enjoyed

I feel the night crawling up all around, blotting out the moon. I feel blood running down the walls, rivers of it in the streets below. And I feel his teeth closing around me.All the best people are crazyY'all, this is the story that Alice in Wonderland always wanted to be. It was bloody, strange, violent, engrossing, and just overall fabulous in its inescapable trippy weirdness. It's a twisty soft pretzel, salty and deliciously satisfying. It'll fill you up.To help out with my review today, we

By all means, I should have hated this novel. It subverts one of my absolute childhood favourites into a story that is so dark, that you are left gasping for breath many a time. Don't take what I say lightly - this book is not for the faint-hearted. If you are put off by scenes of rape, torture and misery, please stay away - Christina Henry just piles it on.Then why did I give it four stars? Well, as a horror novel, it is just one dark rollercoaster ride. Once you mount, there is no way to get
