Description:WOMEN OF MIGHT AND MAGIC...roam lands filled with danger, mystery and sorcery. They are sword-wielding defenders or magical spell-casters - roles too often considered the exclusive province of men.Handpicked by the late Marion Zimmer Bradley, here are 25 original stories about bold and talented women created by such masterful word-weavers as Diana Paxson, Esther M Friesner, and Dorothy J Heydt. Journey with them now through enchanted realms of the imagination into perils both physical and magical:Where the respect a sorceress pays to a simple farm animal can cure an entire village suffering from a devastating plague...A young woman is able to free a goddess from her husband, the god of war, with one word...With the help of a healer, a group of animal "familiars" unite to vanquish the magician who slew their masters...When the mentor of an apprentice sorceress is killed, the young sorceress-to-be gains her power from the most unlikely source imaginable...Before her death in 1999, Marion Zimmer Bradley had prepared volumes 19 and 20 of the ever-popular Sword & Sorceress anthology series. Known for discovering and nurturing some of today's best-selling talents, Bradley has once again assembled a powerhouse collection of fantasy fiction, filled with women warriors and wizards.Contents:Introduction · Elisabeth WatersThe Curse of Ardal Glen · Laura J.
