Tales of Blood and Ink

Kate MacLeod writes both fantasy and science fiction. This book collects her nine previously published short stories as well as two new bonus stories. These tales span from Heian era Japan to the near reaches of space, from alternate world fantasies inspired by Babylon and Mohenjo-Daro to post-apocalyptic air ships that never touch the ground, from light-hearted fare like "Trifle" to the darker "On Desperate Seas", based on the ill-fated John Franklin Expedition. 

This collection includes:
Blood and Ink
Oil Fire
Gardens of Wind
Seagull and Raven
Mother River
Tale of a Fox
Full Circle
On Desperate Seas
