Hardback. Condizione: New. A feast of modern fiction, folklore and mythology, you'll find new stories from submissions, and ancient tales of the looming, life-giving, eye-burning solar entity that dominates our sky. The sun has inspired many stories - tales of its origins and influence, in the myths and traditions of the ancient world, to modern storytellers who employ technology and deep space exploration to discover the many suns of the universe. For ancient Egyptians, the sun deity Ra was the first Pharaoh; in the ancient Vedic culture the sun, Surya, was guarded against the darkness by Usha and Pratyusha; for the Norse, the beautiful siblings Sol and Mani drove the sun ahead of the snarling wolf Sköll; for the ancient Chinese, it was a demon or dragon who threatened the sun and an eclipse was a sign of near success; for the Cherokee, the Sun was jealous of the moon because the people could only squint during the day, but looked adoringly at the pale moon light of the night. The Maori of New Zealand tell of the sun being ambushed by Maui, and for the Romans, Aurora, the Goddess of the Dawn, brought renewal and relief across the lands. Such stories reveal the foundations of humanity, alongside modern writers who explore the other worlds and many stars that dispense both life and fear to civilizations on our own and so many other planets.New, contemporary and notable writers featured are: Maddox Emory Arnold, Beston Barnett, Cara Giles, Amanda Ilozumba, J.A. Johnson, Andrew Knighton, Joshua Lim, Ondine Mayor, Damien Mckeating, Stewart Moore, Owen Morgan, Christopher R. Muscato, Rob Nisbet, Katherine Quevedo, E.C. Robinson, Faye Snowden, Rose Strickman, Alyza Taguilaso, Lauren C. Teffeau, and Caroline Winge. These appear alongside classic work by William Hope Hodgson, Amy Lowell, Jules Verne, H.G. Wells and more, plus mythology, folklore and indigenous tales from around the world.The Flame Tree Gothic Fantasy, Classic Stories and Epic Tales collections bring together the entire range of myth, folklore and modern short fiction. Highlighting the roots of suspense, supernatural, science fiction and mystery stories the books in Flame Tree Collections series are beautifully presented, perfect as a gift and offer a lifetime of reading pleasure.…

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Some curses must be smoothed over, not broken. What if your home were cursed into stone? How far would you go to fix it? Forest fairy Raya dreams of journeying to the high desert, where fairies hunt and eat meat. Her upcoming trip there gets postponed when the sea queen pays a fateful visit to the forest. An unfortunate accident with Raya leads the sea queen to curse Raya's home into petrified wood. Eager to apologize and heal the forest, Raya teams up with the prickly, reluctant Shone, a high desert hunter. As they set off for the seashore, Raya learns of Shone's dangerous secret mission and must choose what she is willing to do about it. In this novella where FernGully meets Zootopia, shrink to pixie size with two strangers as they forge an unexpected bond and uncover the layers of a mystery that will forever change their world-and them. THRICE PETRIFIED is a fantasy adventure with slow-burn romance where two fairies will step up, despite their differing cultures, to confront shared guilt and growing feelings along the way. Join Raya and Shone as they venture beyond their homelands to learn what it takes to heal a broken world. Reviews for Katherine Quevedo Review of "Song of the Balsa Wood Bird" "A short story with a particularly stunning scene that's imprinted itself on my mind, a tale of hope and determination, and also of loss, all at the same time." - Reactor Magazine, "Seven Speculative Stories About Preserving History and Culture" Review of "The Menagerie Machine" "Quevedo offers a crash course in dealing with bullies and loving yourself, in [less] than five minutes-plus a dash of humor and nostalgia for all those carnival rides you enjoyed as a child." - Reactor Magazine, "Nine (Very) Short Fantasy Stories With Happy Endings" Review of The Inca Weaver's Tales: "For a mini-chapbook, The Inca Weaver's Tales feels complete, even epic, and with each reread, I appreciate Quevedo's poetry and exploration of heritage even more." - Richard Leis, Fantasy Author More by Katherine Quevedo MYRIAD LANDS VOL. 2: BEYOND THE EDGE - This anthology of fantasy tales set in imaginative other-worlds features a story by Katherine Quevedo, "Venom in the Cloud Forest," in which a villager in a misty, high-altitude rainforest must discover who poisoned him and why before his fever takes control. "DESERT LOCKS" - This short story from GigaNotoSaurus takes place in a society where magic requires strands of hair for casting spells. A "shrouder" investigates the disappearances of his brethren, along with a new procedure that promises to destroy all hair roots, but at a cost. This item is printed on demand.
