New Poems and Stories of the Borderlands
Written by Various Authors; Edited by Holly Black and Ellen Kushner
Welcome to Bordertown, a town that’s on the border of the human and the elfin realm. Here, runaway teens can find adventure, escape from their reality, and discover ways to recreate themselves. These are their stories.
The stories are fun to read. The authors selected are great. The concept of an in-between world is a fun idea. Readers who like popular fantasy authors, adventure, and short stories will enjoy reading this book.

Love books that are not the traditional chapter book to allow students to experience different types of writing. Seems like a great topic that patrons will enjoy in an enjoyable format. Adding to my list of books to buy.
