Firebirds

Product Description

Firebirds is more than simply an anthology-it is a celebration of wonderful writing. It gathers together sixteen original stories by some of today's finest writers of fantasy and science fiction. Together, they have won virtually every major prize-from the National Book Award to the World Fantasy Award to the Newbery Medal-and have made best-seller lists worldwide. These authors, including Lloyd Alexander, Diana Wynne Jones, Garth Nix, Patricia A McKillip, Meredith Ann Pierce, and Nancy Farmer, each with his or her own inimitable style, tell stories that will entertain, provoke, startle, amuse, and resonate long after the last page has been turned. The writers featured in Firebirds all share a connection to Firebird Books, an imprint that is dedicated to publishing the best fantasy and science fiction for teenage and adult readers. This anthology is essential reading for all fans of speculative fiction.
