In the heart of Winter evil lurks and legends rise.
In the dark and cold, we cling to the hope for spring. Yet, darkness cannot be defeated without the light. When the chill of winter's shadow is upon us, we look to dreams of glory and triumph to warm our souls.
Mythic Winter collects these hopes and dreams (and, perhaps, even a few nightmares), put onto the page by some of the newest voices in science fiction and fantasy literature. Walk with us down the icy paths, the frozen forests, and across distant galaxies to discover new stories and new worlds to enrapture and enthrall you in these cold, dark months.
