Book Description
Bestselling author and editor of the popular A Lover’s Treasury of the Fantastic returns with an anthology of classic quest stories, as only she can assemble them. As far back as Homer’s Odyssey, “the quest” has been a compelling and popular storytelling vehicle used in many enduring works of Western literature, including Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, The Pilgrim’s Progress, and the contemporary fantasy favorite, The Lord of the Rings. Now, in homage to these timeless favorites, Margaret Weis has assembled a sparkling reprint collection of quest-driven gems by such notable fantasy authors as Neil Gaiman, C. J. Cherryh, Michael Moorcock, and Mercedes Lackey.
