A Canadian Children's Book Centre Our Choice selection, 2005
It's one thing to deal with magic - quite another to find
your fate bound to it.
Summoned to Destiny is an anthology of original fantasy
stories based on the theme of self-discovery. From that starting point, the
stories are as diverse as their authors, ranging from traditional fantasy to
shapeshifters, from dragon-haunted cliffs to simple country inns. But all share
a love of things wondrous and magic. Discover that power has its price … and a
destiny involving magic is never quite what you expect.
Featuring original fiction by: Marie Brennan, Ed Greenwood,
Kevin G. Maclean, Jana Paniccia, MT O'Shaughnessy, Ruth Stuart, Karina
Sumner-Smith, and Michelle West.
"An exciting collection of tales about magic and destiny, and
how they weave themselves into the lives of the young men and women brave enough
to venture beyond the world they know."
- Patricia McKillip, author of Alphabet of Thorn.
