Once Upon a Spring : A Folk and Fairy Tale Anthology

A hunter invades a blossoming grove and becomes obsessed with its beautiful spirit. In a world forever waiting for spring, two women with no pasts or memories find each other. A shapeshifting hare seeks her missing brother among the bluebells. The god of the underworld mourns the loss of his beloved wife, the goddess of spring. Once upon a time stories travelled from place to place on the tongues of merchants and thieves and kings alike. Winter would thaw, and down rivers of melt water and roads cleared of snow a new round of stories would pop up like flowers in every village or town or city. In the spirit of these age-old stories comes Once Upon a Spring, a seasonal anthology of folk and fairy tales from 16 authors across the globe. It covers everything from spring curses to fledgling romances to daring adventures, and features both intriguing twists on classic tales and exciting original stories. The third of four planned seasonal anthologies from Macfarlane Lantern Publishing, Once Upon a Spring is sure to have a story for just about everyone. Grab your copy in time for April showers today!
