Swords Against the Millennium,[Jacket Hard Cover] edited by Mike Chinn

The anthology demonstrates once again that heroic fantasy fits the short story format as well as novel length Mike Chinn and I were thinking of Robert E Howard, Jack Vance, Fritz Leiber, Edgar Rice Burroughs, Michael Moorcock and other writers and their stories of that ilk. SatM collects eleven stories:

• An Embarrassment of Champions by Chris Morgan
• Manslayer by Simon R Green [reprint]
• The Stages of the God by Ramsey Campbell  [reprint]
• The Seventh Sigil by Cherith Baldry
• Dark Destroyer by Adrian Cole
• The Taking by Stan Nicholls
• Demon Slayer by Pauline E Dungate
• Act of Sacrifice by Paul Lewis
• To Catch a Thief by Lisanne Norman
• Nyalis and the Cloud Raiders by Anne Gay
• The Hunger of the Leaves by Joel Lane
