| Summary |
Twenty curses, old and new, from bestselling fantasy authors such as Neil Gaiman, Karen Joy Fowler, Christina Henry, M.R. Carey, and Charlie Jane Anders. ALL THE BETTER TO READ YOU WITH It's a prick of blood, the bite of an apple, the evil eye, a wedding ring, or a pair of red shoes. Curses come in all shapes and sizes, and they can happen to anyone, not just those of us with unpopular stepparents ... Here you'll find unique twists on curses, from fairy tale classics to brand-new hexes of the modern world-expect new monsters and mythologies as well as twists on well-loved fables. Stories to shock and stories of warning, stories of monsters and stories of magic. "This anthology should satisfy most fantasy readers and is well worth a look." "Skin-crawling, tooth-grinding scary and sensuous...an excellent collection whose unforgettable, spooky images invoke the magic of daily life." |
