Moonskin is a ponyfied adaptation of Charles Perrault's Donkeyskin, and Robin McKinley's Deerskin… and as such contains themes of violence, incestual rape, et al. However… MOONSKIN IS NOT A CLOPFIC ! It is an exploration of a woman/mare's plight and how she might overcome it with friendship, love, and a little bit of magic.
