Continuing the tradition of excellence maintained by previous volumes in this series, The Year's Best Fantasy and Horror assembles the finest examples of fantastic literature published in 1995. The forty-six stories and poems range widely from fabulous realms that never were to the magic inherent in everyday life, from ghosts and unnameable terrors to unicorns, talking penguins, and many more wonderful impossibilities. Featuring the editors' comprehensive year-end summations and a long list of honorable mentions, this volume is truly a treasure trove of delightful reading for all. --front flap
