You know, I don't like his writing style, but he writes books I generally can't put down for the ingenuity...
Wicked
Son of a Witch
Lost
Mirror Mirror

I've only read Wicked.
I can't get my library to get the other ones in for some reason. I've requested them SEVERAL times. It's driving me nuts..

Wicked as for a story is the best read, and not for pure writing... but I found Son of a Witch far more interesting, maybe in that it takes the fairy tale far outside of that...
If you wish I can gift you books, it would take a PM about addresses, but I am done with them... and I love to pass on stories... let me know. :|

Son of A Witch was about the Borgias' right? I've been meaning to read that one. I thought Wicked was cute and Mirror Mirror wasn't bad either.
