Synopsis
Fantasy spreads across the five boroughs in the first volume of a new anthology series collecting fantastic and extraordinary stories set in specific urban locales.
An intriguing but insular man with telekinetic powers becomes New York City's greatest superhero... A love affair blossoms between the Empire State Building and the Chrysler Building... There are tunnels under New York that do not appear on any map... Being a Manhattan real estate broker for supernaturals is a real challenge...
Editor and anthologist Paula Guran collects a diverse array of unusual and memorable tales set in the Big Apple, from a who's-who of New York Times bestsellers and Hugo and Nebula Award-winning writers including George R. R. Martin, Peter Straub, Naomi Novik, Maria Dahvana Headley, Holly Black, and many more.
Anyone who's visited New York, New York knows what a "magical" place it is; these stories reveal just how marvelous, extraordinary, mysterious, and even occasionally eerie a truly fantastic city can be.
