CRIMSON BOUND

This lush and dark reimagining of "Little Red Riding Hood" is vibrantly enhanced by Elizabeth Knowelden's expert narration. With deliberation and a somber tone, she embodies Rachelle's struggle to resist becoming like the very monsters she fights in a magical medieval France. Marked by a Forest Born and then forced to murder someone she loved, Rachelle struggles to maintain her morality even while she's aware of the lengths she'll go to survive. Knowelden teases out the nuances of her emotions as she maintains the flat, even tones of the stern facade Rachelle presents to the court. Fairy-tale fans will be thoroughly entranced by the twisted path Rachelle must take to save humanity. J.M. © AudioFile 2015, Portland, Maine [Published: JULY 2015]
