Like a reverse Ulysses, ABBREVIATED EPICS brings you the Hero's Journey in ten pages or less. Third Flatiron Anthologies doubles up this time with 19 short fantasy stories. Join canny samurai and brave shield maidens on adventures in fantastic realms, repurposing the old myths and forging new ones. And featuring Jo Walton's epic poem, "Odin on the Tree."
