99 Fleeting Fantasies

by Jennifer Brozek (Editor), Crystal Frasier, Jonathan Maberry

EVEN A DREAM CAN BE CAUGHT IN PROSE…

There’s nothing better than a moment of whimsy and a dash of the fantastical to get the mind wandering. 99 Fleeting Fantasies is a flash fiction anthology readers can tiptoe through for a bit of wonder or while away an afternoon as they meander from old-time tales to far-flung fables to serious snippets of legend and lore that come from all over the world, including Australia, Canada, England, France, Germany, India, Ireland, Malaysia, Mexico, Nigeria, and the United States.

Featuring stories from the imaginative minds of Cat Rambo, Charles Stross, Crystal Frasier, Jody Lynn Nye, Jonathan Maberry, Premee Mohamed, Seanan McGuire, Wole Talabi, and many more!

This book is like a box of great Belgian chocolates, in the best possible way: you pick it up, have a few marvelous morsels, then savor the taste as it lingers. There are some amazing stories in this anthology—I am very proud that my humble tale ("Herbert", #83) was chosen to be among such giants.
