The debut collection from New York Times bestselling author Rebecca Roanhorse includes a new novella set in the world of Trail of Lightning alongside her award-winning stories.

Rebecca Roanhorse's first publication, ?Welcome to Your Authentic Indian Experience™?, was awarded both the Nebula and Hugo Award for best short story, and on its strength Roanhorse was awarded the Astounding Award for Best New Writer. Although Roanhorse began to publish novels including Trail of Lightning and Black Sun, she has continued to write piercing stories that examine the American experience through marginalized perspectives.

In ?River of Bones?, Roanhorse returns to the Sixth World series with a novella, this time from Kai's perspective, as he and Maggie travel back to where he grew up to save his ex from the people who almost beat him to death, his ex's family.

?A Brief Lesson in Native American Astronomy?, winner of the 2019 Ignyte Award, explores the tradition of celestial-based storytelling.

?Falling Bodies?, where a young man caught between two disparate worlds searches for his place in the universe.

?Eye and Tooth?, a story of black horror about the hunters who hunt the monsters and the monstrous among us.

Through a range of contemporary to outright fantasy and science fiction these stories will immediately capture your attention from one of our premiere writers of speculative fiction whose work is always at the vanguard of American fiction.
