Description: Praise for Dreams and Visions : A VOYA Best Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Horror selection, 2005 "Contemporary milieus, historical venues, apocalyptic futures, the afterlife and fabled lands: Dreams and Visions: Fourteen Flights of Fantasy , the new anthology edited by M. Jerry Weiss and Helen S. Weiss, covers an admirably wide territory . The stories here are remarkably free of factitious, "issues"-style controversies yet manage to convey genuine lessons about life."-- The Washington Post "With an impressive list of contributors, including Joan Bauer, Tamora Pierce, David Lubar, and Suzanne Fisher Staples, this collection offers a bit of everything [it] manages at once to entertain and surprise while offering a feeling of hopefulness .A strong collection that surprises and delights with every turn of the page."-- VOYA [5Q/4P/J/S) "Readers will recognize many of the teen characters in the 14 stories in this collection, which encompasses a broad range of common themes . The stories reflect diverse time periods, locations, and cultures as well (a few are set in the Middle East and Asia), and several selections encourage thought about deeper issues .A stellar roundup of writers--among them Joan Bauer, David Lubar, Tamora Pierce and Sharon Dennis Wyeth--contributed tales .Try this on readers not typically drawn to fantasy."-- Booklist
