From Tam Lin's haunted Scottish woods to the Britain of Merlin the Arch-Mage to the world at the dawn of Time...

Nine superb original fantasies, specially created and illustrated for this collection, conjure up landscapes as diverse as the magical land of Damar, the mysterious salt-lined underworld beneath Northwich, Ynis Evelonia, the Isle of Women, and the empire of Obanah, ruled over by the great Ob, the World Elephant.

Patricia McKillip, Jane Yolen, Joan D. Vinge, Robin McKinley, Peter Dickson, Michael de Larrabeiti and others combine to weave a complex tapestry of delight, timeless and enchanting.
