Description

Summoned to Destiny is an anthology of original fantasy stories based on the theme of self-discovery. From that starting point, the stories are as diverse as their authors, ranging from traditional fantasy to shapeshifters, from dragon-haunted cliffsto simple country inns. But all share a love of things wondrous and magic. Discover that power has its price . and a destiny involving magic is never quite what you expect.
Featuring original fiction by: Marie Brennan, Ed Greenwood, Kevin G. Maclean, Jana Paniccia, M T O'Shaughnessy, Ruth Stuart, Karina Sumner-Smith, and Michelle West. With cover illustration by Kenn Brown and Chris Wren.

Tanya Huff may have left Nova Scotia at three, and has lived most of her life since in Ontario, but she still considers herself a Maritimer. On the way to the idyllic rural existence she shares with her partner Fiona Patton, six cats, and a chihuahua, she acquired a degree in Radio and Television Arts from Ryerson Polytechnic—an education she was happy to finally use while writing her recent Smoke novels. Of her previous twenty-three books, the five—Blood Price, Blood Trail, Blood Lines, Blood Pact, Blood Debt—featuring Henry Fitzroy, bastard son of Henry VIII, romance writer, and vampire are among the most popular.
