Women write science fiction. They always have. Rediscovery: Science Fiction by Women (1953-1957) offers, quite simply, some of the best science fiction ever written: 20 amazing pieces, most of which haven't been reprinted for decades...but should have been.

Surfing the New Wave Containing 19 pieces of fiction, Rediscovery Volume 3 is particularly resonant with pieces like Sonya Dorman’s “The Deepest Blue in the World”, a prototype for The Handmaid’s Tale. And Pam Zoline’s “The Heat Death of the Universe”, which fused the New Wave and feminist science fiction. And Hilary Bailey’s alternate history masterpiece, set in a Nazi-conquered (but not subdued!) England, “The Fall of Frenchy Steiner”. With a host of Afterwords by luminaries from Seanan McGuire to Marie Vibbert, as well as a number by relatives of the authors, Rediscovery Volume 3 will be an indispensable part of every library, whether you’re a casual SF fan or a rarefied scholar!

Blount County was carved out of the territory ceded to the State by the Creek Indians following their defeat at the Battle of Horseshoe Bend. The earliest settlers began streaming into the former wilderness as early as 1817. Blount was originally a large county, but over the decades pieces were taken to make up other adjoining counties such as Jefferson, Marshall, Etowah, and Cullman. Every cemetery within the contemporary boundaries of Blount was visited by the author and each readable tombstone was copied to develop the contents of this three volume series. Most of the cemeteries were read in 2002. Volume 1 covers alphabetically A through H, beginning with the Alldredge Family Cemetery and concluding with the High Rock Methodist Church Cemetery. This book is vital to any serious student of Blount County genealogy and history.

From ensorcelled princesses to a frog that speaks, an enchanting collection of fairy tales from the Newbery Medal–winning author. The last mortal kingdom before the unmeasured sweep of Faerieland begins has at best held an uneasy truce with its unpredictable neighbor. There is nothing to show a boundary, at least on the mortal side of it; and if any ordinary human creature ever saw a faerie—or at any rate recognized one—it was never mentioned; but the existence of the boundary and of faeries beyond it is never in doubt either. So begins “The Stolen Princess,” the first story of this collection, about the meeting between the human princess Linadel and the faerie prince Donathor. “...
