The Lady in Glass and Other Stories
ByPublisher Description
A magical collection of stories new and old spanning across all of Anne Bishop’s most beloved fantasy worlds.
Here, together for the first time, the shorter works of New York Times bestselling fantasy author Anne Bishop are included in one dazzling volume.
A master of bringing fantasy worlds to life, this collection showcases Bishop’s impressive range, from rarities of her earliest writing to the Realms of the Blood, from darker fairytale retellings to the Landscapes of Ephemera, and from standalone stories of space exploration and fantastical creatures to the contemporary fantasy terrain of the World of the Others.
Includes previously published and unpublished tales, as well as two brand-new stories, written especially for this collection: “Friends and Corpses,” a murder mystery in which the corpse has some decidedly unusual qualities, and “Home for the Howlidays,” a heartwarming return to the Blood Prophet Meg Corbyn and the shapeshifting Simon Wolfgard from The Others.

“Book Summary:
Anne Bishop has written dozens of stories to captivate her fans, and this anthology is no different. The Lady in Glass and Other Stories collects several of her stories into one collection. Best of all, some of the shorts come from some of her most famous series (looking at you, The Others!).
Inside this novel, you’ll find The Lady and the Glass, Bear Trap, Not A Princess, The Weapo, Hotting Fuggam and the Dragon, Tunnel, Match Girl, Rapunzel, The Wild Heart, The Fairest One of All, Black Jewels, The Landscape of Emphermer, The Voice, The World of the Others, The Dark Ship, New Place, The Day Will Come, Truth and Story, Stands A God Within the Shadows, She Moved Through The Fair, and A Strand in the Web. Additionally, there are two new shorts, Friends and Corpses and Home for the Howliday.
My Review:
Whew. Naturally, there’s a lot to unpack in The Lady in Glass and Other Stories. We have a dozen stories (easily) covering several different series/worlds. Honestly, it was a delight to dive back into some of these worlds. It reminds me that a.) I missed them, and b.) there’s at least one series I’m behind on, and I need to fix that.
It probably goes without saying, but my favorite shorts in this collection were all of the ones related to The Others. That’s my current series obsession, so anything related to them obviously has me squealing in delight. (Plus, more Meg! I mean, come on).
The Black Jewel shorts were nostalgic - and a strong reminder that I never finished that series (I think I stopped somewhere around book four or five?). I really do need to remedy that as soon as possible.
My favorites in this collection include Home for the Howlidays, The Lady and the Glass, Not a Princess, The Dark Ship (more, please), and New Places.
