Black Swan, White Raven by Ellen Datlow, Terri Windling
4.0
3.7 Stars
As with every anthology, this one also has a few hits and misses. The misses seem to be more, but the hits are very good. The book has 21 pieces (19 stories and 2 poems).
My favorites:
No Bigger than my Thumb by Esther M. Friesner- creepish but good
In the Insomniac Night by Joyce Carol Oates- crazy, insane, twisted
The Trial of Hansel and Gretel by Garry Kilworth- too good
Rapunzel by Anne Bishop- lovely
Sparks by Gregory Frost- interesting
The Reverend’s Wife- fun
True Thomas by Bruce Glassco- interesting, engaging
The True Story by Pat Murphy- wonderful
