"Completing Ann and Jeff VanderMeer's definitive survey of fantasy fiction from around the globe, this companion volume to The Big Book of Classic Fantasy takes the genre into the twenty-first century with ninety-one astonishing, mind-bending stories. A VINTAGE ORIGINAL. Return to the sumptuous, global feast of fantasy fiction with Ann and Jeff VanderMeer's selection of modern masterpieces. From the swinging sixties to the strange, strange seventies, the over-the-top eighties to the gnarly nineties--and beyond, into the twenty-first century--the VanderMeers have found the stories and the writers from around the world that reinvented and revitalized the fantasy genre after World War II. From Jorge Luis Borges to Ursula K. Le Guin, Michael Moorcock to Angela Carter, Terry Pratchett to Stephen King, the full range and glory of the fantastic are on display in these ninety-one stories in which dragons soar, giants stomp, and human children should still think twice about venturing alone into the dark forest"--… (mais)

Thanks to NetGalley for my ARC.
Yet again ANOTHER masterful work of anthology. Also it seems sadly but thoroughly explained the last anthology they will be creating as a team. Per usual the Vandermeers introduction is yet again worth the price of admission. Expertly researched and well written overview of choices and defining what they view as Modern Fantasy. Just really good. Not to mention the story selections! Just totally great. Love it. Also as is always the case the author bios are to kill for - always just the right amount of information especially for the stories that were not familiar. ( )
