Queen of Hearts by Colleen Oakes (Queen from Alice in Wonderland) Gregory Maguire, Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister A Wounded Name by Dot Hutchison is a retelling of Hamlet. Fairest of All: a tale of the wicked queen by Serena Valentino The Looking Glass Wars by Frank Beddor -- a spin on Alice in Wonderland with more emphasis on the Red Queen (and the Hatter is an assassin!) Splinter by AG Howard (Alice in Wonderland - - what if Alice did more harm than good in Wonderland?) Scarlet by Gaughen - redefines the character of Wil Scarlet from Robin Hood with an interesting twist to the Sheriff and Robin as well. Capt. Hook: The Adventures of a Notorious Youth by JV Hart (Ok, this one may be more "tween" but it is still a great take on the childhood of a villain) John Gardner's //Grendel// The Madman's Daughter is " rewrite" of The Island of Dr. Moreau
