New Magics: An Anthology of Today's Fantasy, ed. by Patrick Nielson Hayden, collects 12 tales of the fantastic, with works by bestselling authors such as Orson Scott Card, Jane Yolen and others. The wildly diverse subject matter covers everything from the imagined travels of the lost hair of Jo March (of Little Women) in a tale by Susan Palwick to a pair of very different accounts of the Holy Grail's reemergence in Neil Gaiman's ""Chivalry"" and ""Stealing God"" by Debra Doyle and James D. Macdonald.
