Wittig describes an extraordinary journey through the infernal regions towards a paradisaical land. Angels ride motorcycles, and cruelty and suffering are unknown on the other side of the Acheron, the legendary river of sorrows. Wittig reveals her poetic, sometimes humorous story in a vivid and highly individual style, creating a kaleidoscopic mixture of the mythological and the modern. Across The Acheron confirmed Wittig’s position as one of France’s most original and gifted writers of the 20th century.

This volume examines a wide variety of the ways in which the fantastic has impacted upon contemporary women's fiction. Some of the issues addressed include: the importance of the cyborg and the spectre to critical and fictional discourses of gender; the interface between the grotesque and contemporary readings of feminist utopianism; the growing similarity between late twentieth-century gothicism and the magical real. The study is based upon the work of fifteen writers and includes novels by Allende, Atwood, Carter, Head, Morrison, Weldon, Winterson and Wittig.

The final installment in the Lost Histories saga: "When dragons make war, Krynn can only tremble in the shaodw of angry wings." Aurican and Darlantan, mighty serpents of gold and silver, have been nurtured in a world of wisdom, meditation, and sublime faith. However, on the other side of Ansalon, Crematia—a dragon of red—inherits the Dark Queen's legacy of betrayal, violence, conquest, and plunder. The advent of a worldwide war sweeps these powerful beings and many more into desperate strife. Battles rage over Krynn with a fury that threatens to annihilate nations and whole races—even dragonkind. As campaigns ebb and flow, generations of lesser mortals come and go, and the great serpents are left to determine the fate of the world. Their triumphs may create a destiny of all-encompassing light or cast the world beneath the shadow of ultimate darkness.

When killer magic is unleashed upon Cormyr, the Harpers know only one person has the power to save them: the legendary Storm Silverhand Strange magic is on the loose in Firefall Keep—magic that kills. The mightiest War Wizards are baffled, and the shadow of destruction threatens valiant Harpers and nobles of the fair realm of Cormyr alike. With the Harpers in jeopardy, they are in desperate need of a hero . . . or heroine. Enter the legendary Bard of Shadowdale, Storm of Silverhand. Raised by Elminster and in possession of great magical powers, she has led the Harpers in battle—and to victory—more than once. When the organization comes to her with news of the lethal and mysterious force now plaguing Cormyr, she knows her time has come once more: “It’s time to save the world again.” Stormlight is the fourteenth book in a series of loosely-connected novels about the Harpers.
