Check out the anthology’s website for all things Storyteller & Tanith Lee.

With eight invited authors and an open call for eight more in July Storyteller is a celebration of Tanith Lee’s work–and an object lesson in the breadth of authors she influenced. In the planning stages for over a year, this is a passion project for the press, the editors, and the authors involved.

All new stories written by beloved authors—such as Terri Windling, Martha Wells, Nisi Shawl, Theodora Goss, and C.S.E. Cooney—whose own work has been influenced by Tanith Lee.

Afterword by Ann VanderMeer. Foreword by Tanith’s widower, John Kaiine.
Edited by Julie C. Day with Carina Bissett and Craig Laurance Gidney.
