About the book

Featuring innovative authors, such as Robert Holdstock, Stephen King, Gregory Maguire, Francesca Lia Block, Steven Millhauser, and Jeffrey Ford, this volume provides stories that highlight the new path that fantasy literature has taken in the past 30 years. Merging the mythology, fairy tales, and archetypes of older fantasy classics with the sensibilities of new modern literature, these stories redefine fantasy and give it a fresh, exciting voice. An imaginative interpretation of the genre, the diverse collection ranges from the dreary depths of an English forest to a TV-lit room with the Lone Ranger and Tonto.
