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.
