These aren't your childhood fairy tales.
"The best thing I've read since sliced bread!" -Name Withheld
Contained herein are three stories so twisted, they'll make you question your own sanity.
Need proof? See below.
"One food he was curious about was the Fruit that hung from the special tree in the center of the garden. He was very tempted to eat one, just to see what it tasted like, since it looked delicious. But God said no. He was never sure why God said no. Something about how the tree possessed knowledge, and if he ate the fruits that blossomed from it, he would suddenly know things. At first it all sounded a little like science fiction to him, and a lot like bullshit. And so what if he did know things? What was the harm in that? But who was he to question God? Soon, however, he began to believe that maybe there was some truth to this knowledge thing after all. He often caught one of the goats eating a fallen Fruit from the Tree, and he was beginning to believe that the goat was becoming smarter than him. It had even learned how to walk on its hind legs, and was beginning to speak Arabic. This seemed a little too close to evolution, and he was quite surprised that God didn't put a stop to that right away. If this kept up, soon the monkeys may start turning into people. And that was some real messed up stuff. He stared at the Tree. Some day he was going to eat one of those Fruits. He'd be damned if he was going to be outwitted by a goat." -A is for Adam
The lights beaming off the disco ball played tricks with the eye as they danced through Jimmy DiFreno's chest hair. He was quite proud of his chest hair. It was part of his culture to be proud of his chest hair.
He wasn't much to look at. He didn't have the classic chiseled looks of a Rudy Valentino or an Antonio Sabato Jr. One that could make the ladies swoon while simultaneously being a silent killer. No, he had the stereotypical looks of a James Gandolfini Six-foot-two, two hundred seventy-five pounds, give or take. He knew that if he kept eating the way he did, he would most likely end up like the late great Gandolfini, but boy, did he love his gabagool. And spaghetti and meatballs. And pasta fazool. And pie. You get the picture. Not that he wasn't a good-looking guy in his own way; it's just hard to get people to believe that he wasn't in the mob with his appearance being the way it was. I mean, he was in the mob, in fact, he was the don; I'm just saying he couldn't hide the fact.-B is for Bear
She looked down at the piece of pie on her own plate. It was the shape of a wedge of pie. That's where the comparison ended. The steam rising up from the hot dessert carried with it a stench the likes of which none of you fine people will ever have the misfortune of sniffing. And if you do, may God have mercy on your soul. She dug her fork in, which for some odd reason only had two tines, which made her a little jealous of her brother. Not only did he get what appeared to be the better dessert, he also got the better fork. A squealy, squeaky sound issued forth from the pie as the fork penetrated it. A gunky, snotty sludge the color of used motor oil and old mayonnaise dripped down from where the tines pierced, and blood ran out of the pores where the chocolate chips rested like blackheads on an old man's back. She risked taking a bite, and it tasted like pig meat wrapped in a 100 percent cotton undershirt.-C is for Cookie
Pick up your copy today and see why readers are calling it outlandish. Hysterical. On the brink of lunacy.
A big ol' word-buffet of the familiar and the surreal. You’ll be asking for seconds.

ABC An Alphabet Book for GrownUps! edition by Marc Richard Literature Fiction eBooks
The book is written in three sections. The first section is an attempt to re-write the story of Adam and Eve in a smart humorous style However It was more like a Flintstones version of Genesis. There was some humor, a few glimpses of profound truths, but mostly uninteresting prattle The second section of the book was by far the best and the reason I gave it two stars, otherwise I was tempted to give it only one star Imagine the Coen brothers rewriting Goldilocks. Again, the best section of the three. The last section, a bizarre rewrite of Hansel and Gretel, was difficult to finish. I found the writing worthy of a grade school assignment, the ideas unimaginative, and the entire story pointless. I was looking forward to discovering some off beat smart humor, but only found disappointment.Product details

ABC An Alphabet Book for GrownUps! edition by Marc Richard Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
I received a free copy of this book in exchange for my honest review. Below, you have it.
To start, we have A is for Adam. Please do not read this story with food or drink in your mouth. It will go everywhere. (Actually, the same is for all three books.) This is a decidedly different take on Adam and Eve. Oh, everything is here, how God created Eden, then Adam, then Eve from a rib. He first tells Adam not to eat from the Fruit. When Eve comes around, Adam tells Eve. You know this part, right? Eve takes a bite, convinces Adam to take a bite, and they are banished from Eden? Well, almost. God didn’t just cast them out; he gave them some tools and seeds to help them along. Seems logical, correct? When Adam and Eve finally figure out that Eve is pregnant, they discuss how this little thing will come out. Please, don’t be eating or drinking. After a while, when the earth has a few more people in it – and yes, all of them are related to Adam and Eve, God shows he really does have a warped sense of – something.
B is for Bear. The bear in this story is Jimmy, a made man. A don in his own right. His house is invaded, Goldilocks style by a rich girl, with everything she needs of her own – except something useful to do. So, she breaks into houses. Unfortunately, she broke into Jimmy’s house and got caught. He had her arrested. She got really, really angry. Oh, did I mention this girl, this girl Jimmy calls Goldilocks, really is, in her own way? When Goldilocks spends the night in jail, she vows to get even. And get even she does. But so does Jimmy. This one was funny, darkly funny. Maybe just dark.
C is for Cookie is a take-off on Hansel and Gretel. In fact, the two protagonists in the story are even named Hansel and Gretel. It seems their father is tired of them hanging around the house all the time. He gives them a month to get a job. They decide to drive a truck, a long haul truck. Because they are new at this, they end up taking a cookie delivery. Word on the street is that truckers who take this particular cookie delivery job never come back. Does the original story, where Hansel and Gretel win in the end hold true here?
I really love Mr. Richard’s writing. It’s either darkly funny or humorously dark. Either way, it is entertaining. Five stars for sure!
These aren't the stories I grew up with. They are a lot more interesting and entertaining. A must read for any letter of the alphabet.
This book only lasted me a day but it was a great read. I was thoroughly entertained and enjoyed every minute of it. I would highly recommend.
If you want some light reading and plenty of laughs, you will love this book. Actually, it's three books in one, three different stories. The first book is an enjoyable spoof on Adam and Eve. Plenty of irony and fun there. The second book is a Mafia tale. A whole lot of craziness. The third book is a new version of the Hansel and Gretel story, sure to keep you reading. I enjoyed all three stories, and I'm sure you will, too. The entire grouping is very well written, and just so much fun!
Unlimited, he's started putting some of his on ku so here I am. Already read some {listed below} and reading 3 now back to back.
Reviewed these before not sure why didn't take, see each individual review for details. A is for Adam -- and not really the story you heard about in the Bible, and definitely not the ending. B is for Bear -- 3 {Italian} mobsters and Blondie, even close to the fairy tale told of Goldilocks. C is for Cookie -- Hansel and Gretel, sort of but not really; truck drivers delivering sweets. Got the 3 pack as a freebie one day.}

The book is written in three sections. The first section is an attempt to re-write the story of Adam and Eve in a smart humorous style However It was more like a Flintstones version of Genesis. There was some humor, a few glimpses of profound truths, but mostly uninteresting prattle The second section of the book was by far the best and the reason I gave it two stars, otherwise I was tempted to give it only one star Imagine the Coen brothers rewriting Goldilocks. Again, the best section of the three. The last section, a bizarre rewrite of Hansel and Gretel, was difficult to finish. I found the writing worthy of a grade school assignment, the ideas unimaginative, and the entire story pointless. I was looking forward to discovering some off beat smart humor, but only found disappointment.
