OMG!!! It’s like they put this together just for me. I will be eagerly awaiting this anthology. I love Robin Hobb, Jo Beverly, Margorie M. Liu, and Jim Butcher. I ADORE Mary Jo Putney. Neil Gaiman and Peter S. Beagle too? So creative and a great draw!
What an awesome lineup. Go Linnea Sinclair, woot!
I like the list, I would like to see “The Dragon Prince” by Melanie Rawn. It is one of the most powerful fantasy love stories I have ever read.
This should be good. Great authors, gotta pick this and Warriors up. Am I the only one who would wish Martin would stop doing this anthology stuff and maybe. . . I duont know . . . FINISH HIS SERIES. Just a passing thought. Looking forward to this anthology though.
