Description
Though best known for his epic series, Tad Williams is also an accomplished practitioner of the short form. Short Work gives ample evidence of this, as it contains a knockout novella later expanded to novel length ( Child of an Ancient City ); riffs on the great fantasist Michael Moorcock ( The Author at the End of Time, Go Ask Elric ), along with excursions into some of his most popular creations and beyond. At over 140,000 words, Rite is essential for every Tad Williams fan and fantasy aficianado. Each tale features a full-page black-and-while illustration by Mark A. Nelson.
