An anthology celebrating the witches and sorcerers of epic fantasy
- featuring stories by George R. R. Martin, Scott Lynch, Megan
Lindholm, and many more! Hot on the heels of Gardner Dozois's
(Rogues, Old Venus) acclaimed anthology The Book of Swords comes
this companion volume devoted to magic. How could it be otherwise?
For every Frodo, there is a Gandalf...and a Saruman. For every
Dorothy, a Glinda...and a Wicked Witch of the West. What would
Harry Potter be without Albus Dumbledore...and Severus Snape?
Figures of wisdom and power, possessing arcane, often forbidden
knowledge, wizards and sorcerers are shaped - or misshaped - by the
potent magic they seek to wield. Yet though their abilities may be
godlike, these men and women remain human...some might say all too
human. Such is their curse. And their glory. In these pages,
seventeen of today's top fantasy writers - including award-winners
K. J. Parker (The Two of Swords), Megan Lindholm (The Windsingers),
John Crowley (The Deep), Tim Powers (Last Call), Liz Williams
(Snake Agent), Elizabeth Bear (Eternal Sky Trilogy), George R.R.
Martin (A Song of Ice and Fire), Kate Elliott (The Court of Fives
Trilogy), Scott Lynch (The Republic of Thieves), and more - cast
wondrous spells that thrillingly evoke the mysterious, awesome, and
at times downright terrifying worlds where magic reigns supreme:
worlds as far away as forever...and as near as next door.
