Kecksies and Other Twilight Tales

George R. R. Martin

New fiction by Diana Gabaldon, David Weber, Naomi Novik, James Rollins, Steven Saylor, Robin Hobb, Peter Beagle, Carrie Vaughn & many more

From George R. R. Martin's Introduction to Warriors: "People have been telling stories about warriors for as long as they have been telling stories. Since Homer first sang the wrath of Achilles and the ancient Sumerians set down their tales of Gilgamesh, warriors, soldiers, and fighters have fascinated us; they are a part of every culture, every literary tradition, every genre. All Quiet on the Western Front, From Here to Eternity, and The Red Badge of Courage have become part of our literary canon, taught in classrooms all around the country and the world. Our contributors make up an all-star lineup of award-winning and bestselling writers, representing a dozen different publishers and as many genres. We asked each of them for the same thing—a story about a warrior. Some chose to write in the genre they're best known for. Some decided to try something different. You will find warriors of every shape, size, and color in these pages, warriors from every epoch of human history, from yesterday and today and tomorrow, and from worlds that never were. Some of the stories will make you sad, some will make you laugh, and many will keep you on the edge of your seat." Included are a long novella from the world of Song of Ice and Fire by George R. R. Martin, a new tale of Lord John by Diana Gabaldon, and an epic of humanity at bay by David Weber. Also present are original tales by David Ball, Peter S. Beagle, Lawrence Block, Gardner Dozois, Joe Haldeman, Robin Hobb, Cecelia Holland, Joe R. Lansdale, David Morrell, Naomi Novik, James Rollins, Steven Saylor, Robert Silverberg, S.M. Stirling, Carrie Vaughn, Howard Waldrop, and Tad Williams. Many of these writers are bestsellers. All of them are storytellers of the highest quality. Together they make a volume of unforgettable reading.

Heavy Hardcover (2 to 4 lbs)

Original Fiction by Jim Butcher, Diana Gabaldon, Lev Grossman, Sherrilyn Kenyon, Brandon Sanderson, Sharon Kay Penman & many more

All new and original to this volume, the 21 stories in Dangerous Women include work by twelve New York Times bestsellers, and seven stories set in the authors' bestselling continuities-including a new "Outlander" story by Diana Gabaldon, a tale of Harry Dresden's world by Jim Butcher, a story from Lev Grossman set in the world of The Magicians, and a 35,000-word novella by George R. R. Martin about the Dance of the Dragons, the vast civil war that tore Westeros apart nearly two centuries before the events of A Game of Thrones. Also included are original stories of dangerous women--heroines and villains alike--by Brandon Sanderson, Joe Abercrombie, Sherrilyn Kenyon, Lawrence Block, Carrie Vaughn, S. M. Stirling, Sharon Kay Penman, and many others. Writes Gardner Dozois in his Introduction, "Here you'll find no hapless victims who stand by whimpering in dread while the male hero fights the monster or clashes swords with the villain, and if you want to tie these women to the railroad tracks, you'll find you have a real fight on your hands. Instead, you will find sword-wielding women warriors, intrepid women fighter pilots and far-ranging spacewomen, deadly female serial killers, formidable female superheroes, sly and seductive femmes fatale, female wizards, hard-living Bad Girls, female bandits and rebels, embattled survivors in Post-Apocalyptic futures, female Private Investigators, stern female hanging judges, haughty queens who rule nations and whose jealousies and ambitions send thousands to grisly deaths, daring dragonriders, and many more."

Weird Tales, the acknowledged leader of pulp magazine fantasy from 1923 to 1954, provided many of the genre's wildest and wooliest stories. Here are 100 of the magazine's greatest, written by the best and brightest writers of macabre tales of horror. Every story is guaranteed to bewilder, disturb, and excite. Witness H.P. Lovecraft's tales of extradimensional terror; discover the worlds of Clark Ashton Smith, which in Lovecraft's words are "a universe of remote and paralyzing fright"; then explore Henry S. Whitehead's quest into the spectral mysteries of the West Indies. The distinguished contributors to this collection challenged traditional notions of fiction by writing tales in ways previously unexplored. Seabury Quinn's blend of the detective story and terror in his accounts of occult investigator Jules de Grandin, E. Hoffman Price's retelling of Eastern myths and legends, and Manly Wade Wellman's tales of Souther folklore are all groundbreaking examples of invention through experimentation. Although Weird Tales is renowned primarily for its short stories and novellas, the magazine also introduced its readers to "sudden," or shorter-than-short, fiction. For example, consider the contrast between Florence Crow's vampire in traditional guise in "The Nightmare Road" and that of Richard F. Searight's in "The Sealed Casket." Also discover how Clark Ashton Smith in "The Last Incantation" and H.P. Lovecraft in "The Doom That Came to Sarnath" intensified the psychological setting of their stories by cultivating a stylized prose form appropriate for their arcane horrors. 100 Wild Little Weird Tales is a superb selection of Weird Tales' best and most bizarre. It proves that good things -- or in the case of weird fiction, bad things -- come in small packages.
