New releases for the week of February 26th

Spotlight:

Synopsis:
The first volume in a series of anthologies offering short stories drawn from the storehouse of world mythology, Japanese Dreams takes the reader to the islands of fire and smoke—where shape-shifters, demons and lovers all populate a landscape blossoming with story. Contributions by such authors as Richard Parks, Catherynne Valente, Jeannette Westwood, Eugie Foster, Ekaterina Sedia, Erzebet YellowBoy, Yoon Ha Lee, Jenn Reese, Sarah Prineas, Jim C. Hines and Steve Berman all offer us a glimpse of a silken sleeve or the red fur of the fox as she slips between the rushes, daring us to follow.

Hi Benjamin, from a fantasy writer in Iowa City (!). Looks like a great review site you've got here. That Japanese Dreams anthology is not coming out this week, despite the amazon listing. And I don't have a story in it.

Cheers!

Always nice to meet a fellow Iowa Citian!

Yeah I noticed that about the release date. B&N and Amazon don't always agree but I thought I would go ahead and note book anyhow.

Perhaps someday you will be in such in anthology. Good luck to you!
