About the Book
Edited by Paula Guran.
From fantastic legends and science fictional futures come compelling tales of powerful women — or those who discover strength they did not know they possessed — who fight because they must, for what they believe in, for those they love, to simply survive, or who glory in battle itself. Fierce or fearful, they are courageous and honorable — occasionally unscrupulous and tainted — but all warriors worthy of the name.
