The long-awaited sequel to the popular classic The Last Unicorn is the centrepiece of this powerful collection of new tales from a fantasy master. As long time fans have come to expect, the stories are written with a grace and style similar to fantasy's most original voices, such as J R R Tolkien, Fritz Leiber, and Kurt Vonnegut. Traditional themes are typically infused with modern sensibilities -- reincarnated lovers and waning kings rub shoulders with heroic waifs; Schmendrick the Magician returns to adventure, as does the ghost of an off-Broadway actor and a dream-stealing shape shifter; and Gordon, the delightfully charming 'self-made cat', appears for the first time in print, taking his place alongside Stuart Little as a new favourite of the young at heart. This wide-ranging compilation contains sly humour and a resounding depth that will charm fans of literary fantasy.
