In the newest volume of her World Fantasy Award-winning short story collections, beloved author Jane Yolen' s dark side has fully emerged. Her vivid, startling, and thrilling tales and poems of the supernatural - from icy-hearted witches to sometimes-innocent shapeshifters - reveal a classic storyteller at the height of her powers. Welcome to the Midnight Circus - and watch your step. The dark imaginings of fantasy icon Jane Yolen are not for the faint of heart. In these sixteen brilliantly unnerving tales and poems, Central Park becomes a carnival where you can - but probably shouldn' t - transform into a wild beast. The Red Sea will be deadly to cross due to a plague of voracious angels. Meanwhile, the South Pole is no place for even a good man, regardless of whether he is living or dead. Wicked, solemn, and chilling, the circus is ready for your visit - just don' t arrive late. ' Jane Yolen is the Hans Christian Andersen of America. ' - The New York Times
