In this new collection, editors Butcher and Hughes introduce a dozen short stories by some of today's best urban fantasy writers. Standouts include Anne Bishop's "The Dark Ship," where, across the ocean from her tales of the Others, an act from a young woman brings her, and her town's troubles, to the attention of great powers. Two powerful women face grief and hope on a search for their daughter in Annie Bellet's "Train to Last Hope." Werewolf Asil discovers that online dating may not be the trial he believes it is in "Dating Terrors," by Patricia Briggs. Jim Butcher centers "Little Things" on the pixie Toot-Toot as he defends Dresden's new castle, with an uneasy ally in Mister the cat. Avid fans of these authors will enjoy where their stories intersect with favorite characters, while new readers will find the shorts accessible and filled with vivid worldbuilding and interesting figures. VERDICT A resoundingly successful collection of stories focused on heart, humor, and the strength of courage.--Kristi Chadwick

Butcher and Hughes (who edited Shadowed Souls, 2016) have compiled an entertaining anthology of twelve hopeful tales about unexpected heroes. Butcher kicks off with "Little Things," in which the loyal, pizza-loving sprite Toot-Toot describes his valiant defense of the wizard Harry Dresden's home against invading gremlins. In Annie Bellet's "Train to Last Hope," a reaper reconnects with her hearth-witch wife after a ten-year separation to resolve the mystery of their long-missing daughter. ""Fire Hazard,"" by Kevin Hearn, follows the Irish wolfhound Oberon and his snorty Boston terrier buddy, Starbuck, as they help Atticus, their personal Iron Druid, deal with raging forest fires in Australia. In ""Troll Life,"" by Kerrie L. Hughes, a temporary train-station manager is preparing for the arrival of a new station inspector when trouble arrives in the form of two runaways aggressively pursued by two wizards and a shifter. And in the longest and final story, ""Dating Terrors,"" set in Patricia Briggs' Alpha and Omega universe, a young woman who avoids using magic and an ancient werewolf recluse are set up on a ghost-hunting adventure blind date. Fantasy fans will enjoy this fun and optimistic collection.COPYRIGHT(2022) Booklist, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
