Winner of the 2016 World Fantasy Award for Best Collection Contains The Bone Swans of Amandale, 2015 Nebula Award finalist for Best Novella 2015 Locus Recommended Reading List, Best Collection and Best Novella C. S. E. Cooney is one of the most moving, daring, and plainly beautiful voices to come out of recent fantasy. She\'s a powerhouse with a wink in her eye and a song in each pocket. --Catherynne M. Valente, New York Times-bestselling author of the Fairyland novels These stories are a pure joy. C. S. E. Cooney\'s imagination is wild and varied, her stories bawdy, horrific, comic, and moving-frequently all at the same time. Her characters are wickedly appealing, and her language--O! her language. Lush, playful, poetic, but never obscure or stilted, it makes her magic more magic, her comedy more comic, and her tragic moments almost unbearable. --Delia Sherman, author of Young Woman in a Garden: Stories Bone Swans is a joy of feathery bones & ghoulish clowns. I adored every word. Like an eyas cries for meat, I cry for more. C.S.E. Cooney\'s a major talent and these are major talent stories. Who can resist hero rats, pouting swans, feral children, flying carpets and the Flabberghast? So tongue-tied am I with delight I fall back on the usual cliches: gripping, delightful, insightful, rollicking & lyrical--and yet not one cliche is to be found in Bone Swans, only stories of surpassing delicacy and wit, told by a lady of rare talent. Please, ma\'am, might I have some more? --Ysabeau S. Wilce, Andre Norton Award wining author of Flora\'s Dare A swan princess hunted for her bones, a broken musician and his silver pipe, and a rat named Maurice bring justice to a town under fell enchantment. A gang of courageous kids confronts both a plague-destroyed world and an afterlife infested with clowns but robbed of laughter. In an island city, the murder of a child unites two lovers, but vengeance will part them. Only human sacrifice will save a city trapped in ice and darkness. Gold spun out of straw has a price, but not the one you expect. World Fantasy Award winner Ellen Kushner has called Cooney\'s writing stunningly delicious! Cruel, beautiful and irresistible. Bone Swans, the infernally whimsical debut collection from C. S. E. Cooney, gathers five novellas that in the words of Andre Norton Award winner Delia Sherman are bawdy, horrific, comic, and moving-frequently all at the same t
