About This Item
Daw Books, New York, 2002. First printing. Condition: Near fine in very good plus dust jacket, book has light edge bumps, dust jacket has light edge wear and light scuffing.
To celebrate DAW Books's 30 years of publishing in the sf and fantasy genres, Wollheim and Gilbert have assembled authors who have published under the DAW banner and whose works have made significant contributions to the field of imaginative literature.
An essay by the editors relates the history of DAW and its founders, Donald and Elsie Wollheim, while individual author or editor commentaries introduce many of the stories.
The fantasy collection includes a variety of stories, including Mercedes Lackey's expression of an author's worst nightmare ("After Midnight") and Christopher Stasheff's melancholy parable of a wizard's journey of bitter self-discovery ("Coronach of the Bell"). Contributions by other notable fantasy writers such as Tanith Lee, Melanie Rawn, and Lynn Abbey round out this collection of 18 tales.
