Shadow Plays edited by Elise Bunter

On a barren world, a wheel of fire rolls across the sky, dropping tears of flame that turn into creatures of fear... A den of dragons brings to trial a killer of their kind... Dark rituals and exotic secrets allow a woman to create the perfect man... An apprentice omensetter learns that, sometimes, the signs will point to him... And beneath the desert sands a hungry spirit thirsts for blood...

This anthology contains twelve new stories of speculative fiction that cover the spectrum of darkness and light, fear and wonder, intrigue and adventure. It includes the 2007 Aurealis Awards 'Best Science Fiction Short Story' finalist, 'Whitey', by Penelope Love.
