For over two decades, the late Marion Zimmer Bradley, best-selling and beloved author, discovered and nurtured a grand generation of popular and acclaimed writers including Mercedes Lackey (who returns to grace our pages this year), Jennifer Roberson, and a host of others. Authors who have appeared within the pages of Sword and Sorceress represent the full spectrum of some of the brightest talent working today -- from C.J. Cherryh, Charles de Lint, and Emma Bull . . . to Deborah J. Ross, Diana L. Paxson, and Laurell K. Hamilton.
We are proud to continue the classic and vibrant feminist tradition with this twenty-third volume of new magical adventures edited by Elisabeth Waters, secretary and co-editor to Mrs. Bradley.
Here are nineteen original stories of powerful women, swashbuckling and magic, spells and duels, arcane sorcery and heroic sacrifice, written by familiar spell-casters of wonder and bright newcomers who are sure to become favorites.
Enter a wondrous universe . . .

Another great Sword & Sorceress,
By
This review is from: Marion Zimmer Bradley's Sword and Sorceress XXIII (Paperback)
I am extremely pleased that Elisabeth Waters has carried on the Sword & Sorceress Anthology series started by the late Marion Zimmer Bradley. I look forward to the new collection each year, and this one was no different. The only reason I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars is for two reasons. 1: It was too short! 2: It's in trade paperback form which I do not care for. I much prefer paperback, which the first twenty or so were in.

Love the stories, even love the author's bios. The entire series is great. I guess I've had my head in the sand, because in the bios I learned Deborah Ross was chosen to continue the Darkover series, so I'll be ordering more books from Amazon today!

This is a great anthology/series. I definitely recommend it for women who are tired of seeing buff, hunky he-men having all the fun when it comes to having adventures, killing the monster in question, and defeating the villain of the plot.

Superb!! Wonder Filled Stories of Women Heroes,
By R. Krantz "Nina" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Marion Zimmer Bradley's Sword and Sorceress XXIII (Paperback)
Well done tales of wielders of swords and magics. Marion Zimmer Bradley must be smiling down on all of us, writers and readers alike. Suspect MZB is laughing aloud as each of us discover another suspense solved with a unique twist. Her top quality anthologies continue in #23 to be well worth our time and complete attention. Thank You, Elisabeth Waters for a great job well done! I can barely wait for #24 in paperback and large print options too. Think I'll hunt up more of #1 through 22 for rereads while I am forced to impatiently wait for #24's release.
