Bookroo's summary

Embark on a journey through fantastical realms where the landscape itself becomes a pivotal character. In this anthology, nine authors craft tales where the very ground beneath the characters' feet holds secrets and power. From enchanted forests to mystical islands, each story invites you to discover how the land influences fate and adventure. Will the terrain aid or hinder those who traverse it? Dive into these imaginative worlds and uncover the mysteries that lie within the landscapes themselves.

From the publisher

It was on a ferry ride to Manhattan that the idea for this anthology was conceived: Sometimes the ground the characters of a story walk on is no more than that; but sometimes the landscape is a character in its own right. Nine writers, including James P. Blaylock, Peter Dickinson, Patricia A. McKillip, P C Hodgell and the editor, Robin McKinley, have written stories where the land is crucial to the tale: the armchair traveller will find the best of fantasy on this grand tour of imaginary lands.
