Rampion–Mary Robinette Kowal

This is another twist up of a fairy tale. Rampion is the prequel to Rapunzel, and concerns itself with how the “barren” mother really got pregnant.

Mary Robinette Kowal’s got a good thing here. It’s a short-short story; maybe three pages, but one of the most satisfying and biting stories in the entire anthology.
