Warrior Princesses
Edited by: Elizabeth Ann Scarborough & Martin H Greenberg
 
20 Fantasic tales from reknowned fantasy authors
 
They carry the banner for all womankind
Children of privelege, they could lead pampered lives in royal palaces, be bartered in marriage alliances to distant courts, or take refuge within the cloistered halls of a religious order. But instead they choose to defend their lands, their people, their families and their freedom, preferring armour to ball gowns, the art of war to the art of love, and the councils of rulers to more 'ladylike' pursuits.
From a young woman burdened with the responsibility for a magical sword . . . to a pharaoh's daughter gifted by the gods . . . to the most unusual reincarnation of Arthur  . . . to a barbarian princess who can outbargain an Empress - here are all-orignal tales of powerful women ready to fight for what they believe in, unforgettable yarns but such top authors as Morgan Llywelyn, Jane Yolen and Elizabeth Moon.
