From George R. R. Martin’s
Introduction to Warriors:
“People have been telling
stories about warriors for as long as they have been telling stories. Since
Homer first sang the wrath of Achilles and the ancient Sumerians set down their
tales of Gilgamesh, warriors, soldiers, and fighters have fascinated us; they
are a part of every culture, every literary tradition, every genre. All Quiet
on the Western Front, From Here to Eternity, and The Red Badge of Courage have
become part of our literary canon, taught in classrooms all around the country
and the world. Our contributors make up an all-star lineup of award-winning and
bestselling writers, representing a dozen different publishers and as many
genres. We asked each of them for the same thing—a story about a warrior. Some
chose to write in the genre they’re best known for. Some decided to try
something different. You will find warriors of every shape, size, and color in
these pages, warriors from every epoch of human history, from yesterday and
today and tomorrow, and from worlds that never were. Some of the stories will
make you sad, some will make you laugh, and many will keep you on the edge of
your seat.”
Included are a long novella
from the world of Song of Ice and Fire by George R. R. Martin, a new tale of
Lord John by Diana Gabaldon, and an epic of humanity at bay by David Weber.
Also present are original tales by David Ball, Peter S. Beagle, Lawrence Block,
Gardner Dozois, Joe Haldeman, Robin Hobb, Cecelia Holland, Joe R. Lansdale, David
Morrell, Naomi Novik, James Rollins, Steven Saylor, Robert Silverberg, S.M.
Stirling, Carrie Vaughn, Howard Waldrop, and Tad Williams.
Many of
these writers are bestsellers. All of them are storytellers of the highest
quality. Together they make a volume of unforgettable reading.
