Norilana Books Presents Marion Zimmer Bradley's Sword and Sorceress XXII, edited by Elisabeth Waters

Cover for Sword and Sorceress XXII

Norilana Books is proud to present the first brand-new volume of original stories in a classic anthology series.

Marion Zimmer Bradley's Sword and Sorceress XXII edited by Elisabeth Waters is now available for purchase in trade paperback, and — due to popular demand — for the first time in a special trade hardcover edition.

Here are sixteen original stories of powerful women, swashbuckling and magic, spells and duels, arcane sorcery and heroic sacrifice, written by familiar spell-weavers of adventure and bright newcomers who are sure to become favorites.

"From Esther M. Friesner's heartfelt tale of a woman's choice to do right rather than uphold tradition... to Sarah Dozier's fiction debut about a unique way to end a war... these 16 original stories demonstrate the unending variety of tales featuring women of might and magic... this well-balanced anthology edited by the late Marion Zimmer Bradley's longtime associate Waters belongs in most libraries."

Library Journal

Sword And Sorceress is the long-running popular series of annual anthologies featuring sword and sorcery stories of strong female protagonists, warrior women and sorceresses, edited by the late Marion Zimmer Bradley for over two decades and beloved by generations of readers. The roster of writers "discovered" or published in Sword and Sorceress over the years reads like the "Who's Who" of genre publishing.
