“Have you heard about this book, Bad-Ass Faeries? I have to get a copy because faeries are not all goodness and light.” —Brian Froud, Faeriecon 2007
Ten years ago, four editors joined forces to bring the dark and dangerous root of the faerie legend into the modern day. And that’s how Bad-Ass Faeries was born. We brought you bikers and cowboys, mobsters and assassins, luchadores and just about everything else you can think of that is bad-ass, all wreathed in the magic of the fae.
After a decade, love for this award-winning series is still going strong. In celebration, we give you: The Best of Bad-Ass Faeries, with stories by Brian Koscienski & Chris Pisano, Keith R.A. De Candido, Adam P. Knave, Jesse Harris, James Chambers, CJ Henderson, Danielle Ackley-Mc Phail, John Passarella, Jeffrey Lyman, Bernie Mojzes, L. Jagi Lamplighter, John L. French, James Daniel Ross, Robert E. Waters, Kelly A. Harmon, DL Thurston, Patrick Thomas, Jody Lynn Nye, Lee C. Hillman, and NR Brown…
