- What will a man do for power? - How much is freedom worth? - What will it take to bring an end to a curse that will destroy an entire family line? - When is it time for an apprentice to make his own life? - What secrets lie in the bones of a raptor? Award-winning author Ron Collins brings you "Five Magics," a collection of swords, sorcery, and wonder that explores the human side of magic. Inside its pages, you'll find: A young sorcerer takes his father's place on a quest to help his king. What secrets will he find? Is blood thicker than water? Find out in "A Gathering of Bones," which earned a mention in Ellen Datlow and Terry Windling's Year's Best Fantasy & Horror. Chains or not, a gladiator can live a fine enough life until it's no longer fashionable that he win. "Ties That Bind" pits today's champion against the next of the chosen. A centuries-old curse threatens a family, and the entire race of dryads, in "The Family Tree," recognized with a Cauldron award by readers of Marion Zimmer Bradley's FANTASY Magazine. "True Power" is attainable for one willing to risk everything. But is it worth the price? "The Time of Leaving" finds an apprentice given an unexpected test. Will he pass? And, perhaps more important, what's the question? ----------- "Collins's characterization goes a long way towards making (Ties That Bind) enjoyable." - Steven Sawicki, Absolute Magnitude The story ("Ties that Bind") is nicely written and worth reading. - Crystal Forkan, Tangent Online The ("Family Tree's") resolution (is) a pleasant surprise. - John Everson, Tangent The darkest and, for me, best piece in this genre in Flights of Fantasy was "A Gathering of Bones" by Ron Collins. It is a first-person story of a young sorcerer alone after his father's death, whose presence is required at the king's palace where the princess lies dying. He will discover much of his father's dark past under the prodding of his hawk, Kiva, who is herself much more than she looks. "A Gathering of Bones" had a nice, lightly Gormenghastish streak of nastiness throughout, something the other stories lacked in their largely good vs. bad dichotomy. - George T. Dodds, SF Site

“A heady mixture of Cinderella, Snow White, Sleeping Beauty and aromatherapy in this new magical adventure” from the Science Fiction Grand Master (Publishers Weekly). An orphaned child and captive scullery maid, young Willadene possesses an uncanny ability to sense and understand the magical odors that pervade her world. It is this remarkable talent—or curse—that carries her far from the fetid kitchen into an apprenticeship with a revered herbalist and ultimately to the highest circles of the Ducal court. But there is depravity lurking within the castle’s walls, inspiring brazen treacheries and usurpations—and foul abduction as unthinkable as it is unexpected. And an innocent girl finds the heightened sense that has been her fortune is now drawing her down into a maelstrom of evil.

Classic and cutting-edge writings on games, spanning nearly 50 years of game analysis and criticism, by game designers, game journalists, game fans, folklorists, sociologists, and media theorists. The Game Design Reader is a one-of-a-kind collection on game design and criticism, from classic scholarly essays to cutting-edge case studies. A companion work to Katie Salen and Eric Zimmerman's textbook Rules of Play: Game Design Fundamentals, The Game Design Reader is a classroom sourcebook, a reference for working game developers, and a great read for game fans and players. Thirty-two essays by game designers, game critics, game fans, philosophers, anthropologists, media theorists, and others consider fundamental questions: What are games and how are they designed? How do games interact with culture at large? What critical approaches can game designers take to create game stories, game spaces, game communities, and new forms of play? Salen and Zimmerman have collected seminal writings that span 50 years to offer a stunning array of perspectives. Game journalists express the rhythms of game play, sociologists tackle topics such as role-playing in vast virtual worlds, players rant and rave, and game designers describe the sweat and tears of bringing a game to market. Each text acts as a springboard for discussion, a potential class assignment, and a source of inspiration. The book is organized around fourteen topics, from The Player Experience to The Game Design Process, from Games and Narrative to Cultural Representation. Each topic, introduced with a short essay by Salen and Zimmerman, covers ideas and research fundamental to the study of games, and points to relevant texts within the Reader. Visual essays between book sections act as counterpoint to the writings. Like Rules of Play, The Game Design Reader is an intelligent and playful book. An invaluable resource for professionals and a unique introduction for those new to the field, The Game Design Reader is essential reading for anyone who takes games seriously.
