Different Times and Other Places

The first collection in nearly a decade from acclaimed fantasy author Juliet E. McKenna, this volume gathers the author's finest stories from the past twenty years and features two brand new tales. With stories set in the author's 2023 BSFA Award-winning Green Man milieu as well as the world of The Tales of Einarinn, this is a collection to savour. Tree nymphs, magical nursemaids, alternative histories, and science fiction sit alongside traditional fantasies as the author's imagination leads us to different times and other places...
