Le Guin’s sharp and witty voice is on full display in this collection of twenty-four essays, revised by the author a decade after its initial publication in 1979. The collection covers a wide range of topics and Le Guin’s origins as a writer, her advocacy for science fiction and fantasy as mediums for true literary exploration, the writing of her own major works such as A Wizard of Earthsea and The Left Hand of Darkness, and her role as a public intellectual and educator.

Kathrine, a priest, is on her way home from a seminar; the journalist Jostein is out on the town; and his wife, Turid, who is an assistant nurse, has a night shift. Above them all, a huge star suddenly appears in the sky. No one, not even the astronomers, knows for sure what kind of phenomenon it is.

One game of poker can ruin your life. It's a lesson my older brother refused to learn. Now, it's too late. After he lost big and disappeared, his debt came knocking down my door.

My brother is assumed dead, but that won't stop me. I'm going to find out what happened to him, dead or alive. I'm making a list of the people responsible for his downfall—I want to see what color they bleed.

Derek Pierce has had a thing for tomboy girls for as long as he can remember. The attitude, the baggy clothes, the chaotic energy. He loves it all. Theoretically. He's never met, let alone dated, a tomboy. And then everything changes when an unexpected windfall allows him to move across the country and begin building a new life for himself. One that is hopefully free of all the annoyances he left behind. But, he immediately discovers, not free of tomboys. As he begins moving into his new duplex, he learns that he shares it with not one, but two amazing, hardcore, hot women.

Dana's got a list of rogue mercenaries who attacked her family, and she's working through it methodically. And violently. What she didn't expect was Tasia turning up again—the werewolf who slipped through her fingers, with her own reasons for being exactly where Dana doesn't want her. What she definitely didn't expect was both of them getting dragged into the darkest corners of the magical underworld: a black market where monsters aren't allies or enemies—they're inventory.
