Illustrated by
Mike Dringenberg.
Innovative narrative construction, explorations of the fuzzy border between fantasy and reality, and an excellent balance of well- and lesser-known authors characterize this latest Firebirds anthology. With all original tales and not a weak entry in the bunch, here is a worthy addition to the rich canon of speculative fiction.
