Fairy Tales for Unwanted Children Podcast: Why its Great

 

Hi, as a lover of fairy tales. I really love listening, to the Podcast known as Fairy Tales for Unwanted Children. This is a series of original fairy tales written and read by a lovely gentleman named Scott Thrower. While these stories do remind me somewhat of Hans Christen Anderson’s style. In the sense that they don’t focus greatly on royalty or tailors who become Kings but instead are more concerned with the common folk. However Scott’s tales tend to go into a bit of a greyer area then Anderson’s more Victorian based morality collection. Drawing heavily from folk tales and fairy tales the stories tend to have dark twists and thoughts on various topics such as death, love, the value of heroism and many more subjects.  They also introduce delightful characters such as Darkness and the Witch who make repeated appearances in a few tales. Even the characters that get one story are pretty memorable.  I often found myself feeling sorry for characters, which may not have deserved sympathy because they were so well written.

I want to talk more about the podcast but I don’t want to spoil any of the great stories on it, so don’t take my word for it come check out the podcast for yourself.
