A memorial anthology for fantasy master David Farland A good story can entertain us. A great story can transform us. Two iconic archetypes in fantasy and fairy tales are wizards and wolves, and both are known for their ability to transform. Wizards can work magic to change the rules of the world to fit their wants and needs. Wolves can transform from man to beast under the light of a full moon. Both can represent power and danger as well as inspire loyalty or fear. This collection of eighteen short stories celebrates a wide variety of both wizards and wolves—often in the same story—as well as peels back the layers of what it means to be transformed. You’ll read stories of people turning into wolves—or wolves turning into people—but you’ll also read stories of a wizard passing on his legacy before he dies, and a hockey game played to reclaim part of a stolen soul. You’ll find a twist on the familiar story of a young girl in a red cape, and a tale of a pinball machine that is more than it appears to be. From fantasy to horror, to science fiction to humor, these stories offer something for everyone. David Farland transformed lives, not only with his writing and imagination, but also with his mentoring of new writers. This anthology supports the scholarship fund of the Superstars Writing Seminars, which he co-founded. “By turns heartbreaking and humorous—but always magical—this anthology is a fitting tribute that’s sure to please Farland’s fans.”—Publishers Weekly Don’t miss the other anthologies that support the scholarship fund.

He is grateful to have his beloved sister, the fierce and independent Svanhild, once more at his side to help keep their kingdom secure. Free from the evil husband who used her, she is now one of Harald’s many wives. While Svanhold is happy to be reunited with her beloved brother, and enjoys more freedom than ever before, she is restless and lonely.

This strange new land offers a life far different from what each has left behind, as well as unexpected challenges and choices.Ragnvald, too, must contend with change. His sons—the gifted Einar, the princely Ivar, and the adventurous Rolli—are no longer children. Harald’s heirs have also grown up. Stepping back from his duties as king, he watches as his sons pursue their own ambitions. But Norway may no longer be large enough for so many would-be kings.Now in their twilight years, these venerable men whose lives have been shaped by war must face another battle that awaits. A growing rebellion pits Ragnvald and his sons against enemies old and new, and a looming tragedy threatens to divide the hardened warrior from Harald and all who care for him. Across the sea, Svanhild, too, wrestles with a painful decision, risking the dissolution of her fragile new family as she desperately tries to save it.Yet as old heroes fall, new heroes arise. For years, Ragnvald and Svanhild pursued the destinies bestowed by their ancient gods.

Emerging from their parents’ long shadows, they have begun to carry on the family’s legacy while pursuing their own glorious fates.

Yes, in the sense that every society sets down rules of conduct, and there will be members of every society who are not content to live within those rules. The important question is: How do we deal with such criminals? Execute them? Freeze them for future generations to consider? Or use our best powers to change them into useful, honest citizens? These stories examine some of those possibilities."Future Crime consists of five short stories by Ben Bova--"Vince's Dragon", "Out of Time", "Test in Orbit", "Stars, Won't You Hide Me?", and "Diamond Sam"--and one cowritten with Harlan Ellison, "Brillo". Also included are the short novels Escape! and City of Darkness.At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
