The Line Between

ISBN:
Category : Fantasy fiction, American
Languages : en
Pages : 252
Book Description
The long-awaited sequel to the popular classic The Last Unicorn is the centerpiece of the powerful collection of new tales from a fantasy master. As longtime fans have come to expect, the stories are written with a grace and style similar to fantasy's most original voices, such as J.R.R. Tolkien, Fritz Leiber, and Kurt Vonnegut.

This wide-ranging compilation contains sly humor and a resounding depth that will charm fans of literary fantasy.
