Product Details


Product Description

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.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great stories of female power and courage, Mar 25 2000
By Barbara L. Wolfe (Minneapolis, MN) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
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.

1.0 out of 5 stars Bad Writing, Jan 5 1999
By A Customer
There is no end to the mediocrity in this book. The stories are half-baked, the plots badly executed. A couple stories are okay, except that they ought to have been longer. Perhaps they were forced into short stories rather than taking on their natural form. Do not waste your money on this. If you are a fan of one of the authors in this book, go read something better written by them somewhere else.
