An anthology apparently produced to celebrate the fact that the publisher, Golden Gryphon Press had produced 25 books, and getting each writer it seems to write what they felt like in terms of story and genre. A good lineup, so for an original anthology this is pretty reasonable, with an average of 3.48. Despite both the dodgy name and girly looking old fashioned fantasy cover, this is not a book of fairy tales, or fluffy fantasy. Although there is one 'faery boy on the run story'. It is mostly science fiction, in fact, with a few other pieces, from drugged out to horror. A 3.75 out of 5 book almost, if you like.
