Graven Images: Fifteen Tales of Magic and Myth
Edited by Nancy Kilpatrick and Thomas S. Roche.
In this thrilling new anthology from the editors of In the Shadow of the Gargoyle (cited by Locus as one of the year's best anthologies), today's top fantasy and horror talents take a close look at our distant idols. Ancient gods who faded into history, all that remains are the mortal-made likenesses of their images-sacred relics, holy statues, and hallowed trinkets bearing the images of those fabled gods who ruled over of all creation... Now, at
last, the old gods have returned-in these all-new tales of the sacred
and profane, the beautiful and grotesque, the loving and vengeful.
