Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

From Janet Berliner's elegant version of a Zulu folktale ("Marimba: A Retelling") to Esther Friesner's comic portrayal of a warrior princess's determined escape from an unwanted suitor ("Twelve-Steppe Program"), the 20 original stories in this collection pay tribute to the sword-wielding, self-empowered heroines of fantasy and legend. Including contributions by Morgan Llywelyn, John Helfers, Tanya Huff, Jane Yolen, and other genre veterans, this volume belongs in most libraries' fantasy or short story collections.

More About the Author

Altogether I've written and collaborated on 38 novels, 22 solo and 16 in collaboration with the fabulous Anne McCaffrey.
Among my solo novels is THE HEALER'S WAR, the 1989 Nebula Award winner for best novel, loosely based on my experiences as a nurse in Vietnam.
I have also written a traditional, though humorous, 4-book fantasy series, SONGS FROM THE SEASHELL ARCHIVES, a feminist Arabian Nights fantasy, two fantasies set in the Wild West and the Yukon Goldrush respectively, my obligatory science fiction writer's apocalypse book and the sequel, both set in Tibet, and three books about folk music and magic that made a big hit with the Library of Congress Folk Music Archives, which I blew up in the first book. Three of my books are about fairy godmothers, one is about Christmas and computers, one features Sir Walter Scott in a Victorian gothic mystery set in Edinburgh, and two are about Queen Cleopatra as the living "Past life" of two different women.
Just last week I released for the first time anywhere, a new e-book (available soon as Print on Demand as well), SPAM VS THE VAMPIRE. Spam is a cat whose mistress disappears suddenly, leaving him and his 14 feline housemates alone and soon to starve. When someone breaks into the house, Spam takes the opportunity to escape into the outside world, where he's actually never been before, to hunt for his human, or at least some other human to feed and care for him and his friends until their friend Darcy comes back. The more he hunts, the more he becomes sure that she is not going to be coming back on her own.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great stories of female power and courage, March 25, 2000
By 
Courage comes in many forms, and the women in these wonderful short stories display every possible manifestation. This is a brilliant collection of warrior-woman/fantasy tales. Do yourself a favor women, read this book and not only be entertained, but be inspired.
