DAW 30th Anniversary Science Fiction and Fantasy Anthologies (Boxed Set)

3.5/5 ( ratings)

Box Set contains both DAW 30th Anniversary Anthologies, the Science Fiction and the Fantasy volumes.

To celebrate the 30th anniversary of DAW Books, editors Betsy Wollheim and Sheila Gilbert asked each and every author published by DAW thoughout its history if they would like to contribute a new story for a special commemorative anthology.

The response was overwhelming. So overwhelming, in fact, that the contributions will be published in not one but two volumes—one for the fantasy stories and one for the science fiction—featuring the most acclaimed, award-winning, best-selling names in any genre.
