Black Feathers: Dark Avian Tales: An Anthology

Description

Readers will wade into this feathered nightmare, brave the horror of death, trading their safety and sanity for that which we all seek-the promise of flight.

Ellen Datlow is one of horror's most acclaimed editors. Datlow was the fiction editor of OMNI for nearly twenty years and also edited the magazines Event Horizon and Sci Fiction. Her many bestselling anthologies include The Year's Best Fantasy and Horror series; Snow White, Blood Red; Lovecraft's Monsters; Naked City, and Darkness.

"Datlow taps into the spooky and sometimes unsettling aspects of the bird kingdom. A solid selection of dark fantasy and horror pieces, many of which possess a more literary tone, opting for psychological and subtle terror over blood and gore. A thought-provoking exploration of the theme." -- Publishers Weekly
