Sie müssen keine Kriegerinnen sein, um zu kämpfen. Aber den Umgang mit Schwert, Dolch und Lanze zu kennen ist überaus nützlich, wenn man sich mit störrischen Nordmännern, vagabundierenden Rittern und schwangeren Drachen herumschlagen muss, die gerade Appetit auf Menschen haben. Allerdings ist das Arsenal der Frauenwaffen nicht auf Eisen und Stahl beschränkt. List, Tücke und diebische Finger gehören ebenso dazu wie Magie, sei sie lodernd heiß oder eisig kalt. Eine Portion Unberechenbarkeit kann auch nicht schaden. Und wenn das alles nicht reicht, kann eine Frau immer noch auf Wissen und Weisheit ihrer Ahninnen zurückgreifen. Falls sie es nicht mit der Universalwaffe aller Menschen zu allen Zeiten probiert: Liebe. Achtzehn Autorinnen und Autoren stellen ihnen in einundzwanzig Fantasy-Geschichten starke Frauen vor, die mit Mut, Magie und mancherlei Waffen um Leben, Freiheit, Stärke und nicht zuletzt um ihre Träume kämpfen.

The Travels of Sir John Mandeville is the chronicle of the alleged Sir John Mandeville, an explorer. His travels were first published in the late 14th century, and influenced many subsequent explorers such as Christopher Columbus.
The Book of John Mandeville has tended to be neglected by modern teachers and scholars, yet this intriguing and copious work has much to offer the student of medieval literature, history, and culture. [It] was a contemporary bestseller, providing readers with exotic information about locales from Constantinople to China and about the social and religious practices of peoples such as the Greeks, Muslims, and Brahmins. The Book first appeared in the middle of the fourteenth century and by the next century could be found in an extraordinary range of European languages: not only Latin, French, German, English, and Italian, but also Czech, Danish, and Irish. Its wide readership is also attested by the two hundred fifty to three hundred medieval manuscripts that still survive today. Chaucer borrowed from it, as did the Gawain-poet in the Middle English Cleanness, and its popularity continued long after the Middle Ages.
