unknown ~ Fifteen original tales of magic and mayhem by fantasy's finest
set in and around Renaissance Faires.
Synopsis ~
Renaissance Fairs have become increasingly
popular the world around, often establishing themselves as annual events in specific
locations. From joust to feasts, plays to magic shows, from dancers and
musicians to fortune-tellers and artisans, today’s Faire-goers can find any
number of events and people to catch their interest and spark their
imagination. What a perfect setting for contemporary tales of a fantastical
nature. Now some of fantasy’s most creative talents have taken up the challenge
of telling all-origional tales of encounters and enchantments set in and around
Renaissance Faires. From a master jeweler who unexpectedly gains a treasure
beyond price…to a musician suddenly able to work magic with his strings…to a
thief who picks the wrong mark – or perhaps the right one…to a policeman’s
encounter with Merlin and murder…here are fifteen spellbinging tales certain to
captivate both Faire-goers and fantasy fans alike.
