About this product

Product Information

Featured in the Netflix series Love, Death & Robots A unique anthology of all-new stories that challenges authors to throw down the gauntlet in an epic genre battle and demands an answer to the age-old question: Who is more awesome--robots or fairies? Rampaging robots Tricksy fairies Facing off for the first time in an epic genre death match People love pitting two awesome things against each other. Robots vs. Fairies is an anthology that pitches genre against genre, science fiction against fantasy, through an epic battle of two icons. On one side, robots continue to be the classic sci-fi phenomenon in literature and media, from Asimov to WALL-E , from Philip K. Dick to Terminator . On the other, fairies are the beloved icons and unquestionable rulers of fantastic fiction, from Tinkerbell to Tam Lin, from True Blood to Once Upon a Time . Both have proven to be infinitely fun, flexible, and challenging. But when you pit them against each other, which side will triumph as the greatest genre symbol of all time? There can only be one...or can there? Featuring an incredible line-up of authors including John Scalzi, Catherynne M. Valente, Ken Liu, Max Gladstone, Kat Howard, Jonathan Maberry, and many more, Robots vs. Fairies will take you on a glitterbombed journey of a techno-fantasy mash-up across genres.

This anthology is consistent throughout, with well-crafted writing and a tantalizing taste of each author's unique journey into reimagining classic fairy tales for a new audience., An essential collection of stories exploring the eternal conflict between magic and technology...Themes both humorous and serious, delivered by the best in the business. Robots and fairies battle on, and the only winners are SFF readers., These lively, action-packed, and emotional tales by the best writers in sf/fantasy allow readers to root for their favorite team or discover new pleasures in an unfamiliar genre...Exceptional storytelling and well-paced writing make this volume a total delight., The modern revival of fairy tale fiction for adults began in the 20th century (with the stories of Angela Carter and Tanith Lee), and The Starlit Wood is proof that the revival is still going strong. Editors Parisien and Wolfe have brought a wide range of writers together to blaze new trails through the dark of the woods. Whether you're passionate about fairy tales, like I am, or haven't read them since childhood, I recommend this excellent anthology. I simply loved it., Lots of strange and wonderful goings-on in The Starlit Wood . Fairy tales you thought you'd left behind in childhood are back in some very poignant, sly and original versions that will touch the Wow in most readers., The all-original stories collected here provide a lively cross-section of current science-fiction and fantasy writers... It's a cliche to say there's something for everyone here, but in this surprisingly eclectic anthology there probably is., Robots v. Fairies is a perfect mix of wonder and humor, technology and magic, with a touch of darkness here and there to ground us in the truths behind the myths and invention, and it's sure to appeal to fans of both genres., The stories range from hilarious to spine-tingling, and each one has its own enchanting qualities...This is a cinematic and well-paced collection and will please both science-fiction and fantasy readers with its variety. Team Robot or Team Fairy? Definitely both., A classy, smart, and entertaining volume of stories put together with consummate care--and featuring the best and most exciting fantasy writers working in the field today.
