Overview
Winner of Foreward Magazine's Silver Book of the Year Award in the Science Fiction category
Finalist for the 2006 Prix Aurora Best Work in English Award
Fantastic Companions is an anthology of nineteen original
short stories, chosen to illustrate the use of anthropomorphism in fantasy.
Individual stories range from more traditional techniques, such as talking
animals, to more unusual, such as the personification of constellations, ancient
gods, and story itself. Aimed at both trade and educational markets, this
diverse anthology is an amazing look at how writers deal with what makes us
truly human, through the lens of imagination.
