Welcome to a new annual anthology created in honor of the late
Joanna Russ, American writer, academic, and feminist whose work
shone brightly in the male-dominated field of speculative fiction
of the latter half of the twentieth century. Heiresses of Russ
offers readers in one volume the best lesbian-themed tales of the
fantastical, weird and otherworldly, published during the prior
year. Editors JoSelle Vanderhooft (Sleeping Beauty, Indeed and
Other Stories) and Steve Berman (the Wilde Stories series) read
countless books, periodicals, and webzines to collect a range of
talers--from new voices as well as award-winning authors--that
celebrate the spirit of Russ's fiction: stories of sorceresses and
spectral women, lost daughters and sisters of myth. The
transformative power of the written word becomes magic and tests
the boundaries of gender, identity and a woman's dreams.
