Sharyn November - Author
A varied speculative-fiction collection: nineteen original stories offer fantasy and science-fiction settings, with “Old Magic” among the stated imaginative elements. Because each story is by a different writer, tone, subject and intensity may differ substantially.
First Firebirds. Then Firebirds Rising. Now there is Firebirds Soaring, the third anthology of original stories by some of today’s finest writers of fantasy and science fiction. These authors, including Nancy Farmer (The Sea of Trolls), Ellen Klages (The Green Glass Sea), Margo Lanagan (Black Juice), and Jane Yolen (The Devil’s Arithmetic), have brought new worlds and Old Magic to life in nineteen remarkable pieces of short fiction. Mike Dringenberg, co-creator of Sandman with Neil Gaiman, contributes decorative vignettes. Firebirds Soaring—like Firebirds and Firebirds Rising—sets the standard for short fiction for teenagers and adult fans of the genre.

The anthology presents nineteen original stories involving fantasy and science-fiction worlds, with “Old Magic” named as part of its imaginative scope.
The main consideration is variety: nineteen pieces may differ in voice, themes and emotional demands. Check each story as you go rather than assuming the whole collection has one consistent tone or level of intensity.
This is a grounded book brief while Suitabook strengthens the analysis: the current material supports only a cautious reading; another book-specific source is still needed.
