Fantasy Steampunk
Once upon a time, the stories that came to be known as
“fairy tales” were cultivated to entertain adults more than
children; it was only later that they were tamed and pruned
into less thorny versions intended for youngsters. But in
truth, they have continued to prick the imaginations of
readers at all ages. Over the years, authors have often borrowed bits and pieces
from these stories, grafting them into their own writing,
creating literature with both new meaning and age-old
significance. In the last few decades or so, they’ve also
intentionally retold and reinvented the tales in a variety
of ways—delightful or dark, wistful or wicked, sweet or
satirical—that forge new trails through the forests of
fantastic fiction. This new anthology compiles some of the best modern
fairy-tale retellings and reinventions from award-winning
and bestselling authors, acclaimed storytellers, and
exciting new talents, into an enchanting collection. Explore
magical new realms by traveling with us, Beyond the Woods . . . Skyhorse Publishing, under our Night Shade and Talos
imprints, is proud to publish a broad range of titles for
readers interested in science fiction (space opera, time
travel, hard SF, alien invasion, near-future dystopia),
fantasy (grimdark, sword and sorcery, contemporary urban
fantasy, steampunk, alternative history), and horror
(zombies, vampires, and the occult and supernatural), and
much more. While not every title we publish becomes a New York Times
bestseller, a national bestseller, or a Hugo or Nebula
award-winner, we are committed to publishing quality books
from a diverse group of authors.
