Judgment Regarding Books So Fey: Queer Fairy Fiction

Really, really enjoyed this anthology (and not just because I'm a contributor to it :-). There are some great stories to be found in here, by an impressive list of writers including Holly Black, Melissa Scott, Lynne Jamneck, Christopher Barzak and othersA new edition will be released in a couple of months from Prime Books.

It's been a long time...I shouldn't have left you...I got this from the library back in...oh wow...2008/2009 and I bought it on Kindle last month. I needed the time. There was a lot of pain, a lot of hate (not against the LGBTQ community but some of the adult-themes in this book)If anyone's going to Faeriecon in 2020 will you let me know? I'd love to go!

SlashReaders: So in this case the back of the book really doesn't tell you much about what is inside it. However, I suppose it can't be easy to write the back of a book for an anthology of short stories. I don't normally enjoy reading short stories, mostly I've decided: because, they are short.

Collected short stories that weave elements of homosexuality into tales of enchantment. There is little to shock within these pages, the inclusion of sexuality is in many cases extraneous.

It took me 6 years to finish reading this anthology - literally. I would start the book and soon thereafter abandon it, before trying again months later. Bearing that in mind, there were a few good short stories (The Coat of Stars, Ever So Much More Than Twenty, Mr. Grimm's Fairy Tale, and a couple others) The rest? Not so much.I have to mention A Bird of Ice in particular. While the premise of this story was interesting and at first seemed so promising, it was painful to read. The gratuitous

There's a huge variety in quality among these stories. I recommend the stories by Ruby deBrazier, Sarah Monette, Holly Black, Christopher Barzak, Delia Sherman, Sean Meriwether, Melissa Scott, and Joshua Lewis.

This is a fantastic collection of short stories, a little bit of a mix of mostly fantasy and urban fantasy and fairytale. And each of them contain a gay or lesbian relationship, but all are done to varying degrees. No two stories are similar.There were so many really good stories packed into this anthology, and it would be really hard to comment on them all, so I shall restrain myself to mentioning just a few favourites."The Coat of Stars" by Holly BlackRafael is a costume designer for stage
