About This Book

The author of the marvelous Darkover novels and of the bestselling Arthurian novel THE MISTS OF AVALON, has assembled this corona of heroic fantasy wherein women of courage and wizardry challenge the evils and dreads of an ensorcelled world.

Here are new stories of warrior women and mistresses of magic, stories of adventure and derring-do, written by such as Glen Cook, Phyllis Ann Karr, Charles R. Saunders, Jennifer Roberson, Diana Paxson, and many more.

Marion Zimmer Bradley writes in her introduction: "Valor has neither race nor color--nor does it have gender...Anyone can write male sexist fiction; anyone can write feminist propaganda. I hope to avoid either and to entertain you while I'm doing it"

Here she has succeeded!
