The Third Volume in the Acclaimed Series!
Volume 3 features dragons, fairies, cats, and more. Oh, so much more, including a talking oak tree named Fred. Rusch and Smith called this volume ‘Creatures, ‘ but the twenty acclaimed stories in this book go far beyond even that.
For more than four decades, New York Times and USA Today bestselling writers Kristine Kathryn Rusch and Dean Wesley Smith wrote professional fantasy short stories that won awards and sold millions of copies.
Now, for the first time, they collect together 100 of their fantasy short stories into a five-volume set called Fantasies Collide. Fifty stories total from each author, with ten stories from Rusch and ten from Smith in every volume.
Don’t miss a volume full of twenty brilliant short stories full of creatures that only Rusch and Smith could bring to life.
