WITH SPELL AND BLADE…
They roam through fantasy landscapes – women who wield a sword in their sisters’ defense or work magic passed down through generations. They are many heroines of SWORD AND SORCERESS – brave women who have adopted the daring roles so often deemed to be the exclusive province of men.
Join Diana L Paxson, Esther M Friesner, Rosemary Edghill, Leslie Fish, Dorothy j Heydt and their fellow spell-weavers as they carry on Marion Zimmer Bradley’s proud, feminist tradition in the twenty-three original, swashbuckling and magical stories of SWORD AND SORCERESS XXI, where:
A family of thieves is sorely disappointed by their daughter’s wizarding ambitions…
A warrior with amnesia is taught a lesson she could never have learned if she remembered her past…
A girl is turned down by a school of magic because of her sex, only to become the disciple of a far more powerful mentor…
An arrogant mage is taught that even the most powerful of sorcerers sometimes needs the help of material weapons…
The best-selling “Sword & The Sorceress series continues with this thrilling 21st edition of all-original stories of action-packed adventure, ultimate magic, and fearsome, sword-wielding women by some of the best names in fantasy today.
