You hold in your hands a cornucopia of modern cutting-edge fantasy.
The first volume of this extraordinary new annual anthology
series of fantastic literature explodes on the scene with works
that sidestep expectations in beautiful and unsettling ways, that
surprise with their settings and startle with the manner in which
they cross genre boundaries, that aren't afraid to experiment with
storytelling techniques, and yet seamlessly blend form with
meaningful function. The delectable offerings found within these
pages come from some of today's most distinguished contemporary
fantasists and brilliant rising newcomers.
Whether it's a touch of literary erudition, playful whimsy,
extravagant style, or mind-blowing philosophical speculation and
insight, the reader will be led into unfamiliar territory, there to
find shock and delight.
Introducing CLOCKWORK PHOENIX.
"Author and editor Allen ("Mythic") has compiled a neatly
packaged set of short stories that flow cleverly and seamlessly
from one inspiration to another.... Lush descriptions and exotic
imagery startle, engross, chill and electrify the reader, and all
19 stories have a strong and delicious taste of weird."
