A Fantastic Holiday Season Author:Kevin J. Anderson (Editor) Grandma gives a sweater she knitted, Dad receives a necktie he doesn't really like, the kids get toys that make a variety of noises, most of them loud, all of them annoying. What do writers give for the holiday season? They give the gift of stories that take the reader away to fantastical times or places, tales that can be blood-curdling or ... more »heart-warming, adventures that capture the heart of the season.
