Seasons of Glass and Iron: Stories

Full of glimpses into gleaming worlds and fairy tales with teeth, Seasons of Glass and Iron: Stories is a collection of acclaimed and awarded work from Amal El-Mohtar.

"This collection comprises more than a dozen of the accomplished sci-fi author's stories over the past decade, including several--such as the title story--that have earned her some of the genre's highest honors." -- NPR

With confidence and style, El-Mohtar guides us through exquisitely told and sharply observed tales about life as it is, was, and could be. Like miscellany from other worlds, these stories are told in letters, diary entries, reference materials, folktales, and lyrical prose.
