Into the Woods: Tales from the Hollows and Beyond

Best known for “The Hollows,” her urban fantasy series about bounty hunter and witch Rachel Morgan, Harrison here presents five short stories, two novelettes, and four novellas that demonstrate her talent for short fiction. While most of the stories expand the world of the Hollows and feature supporting characters from that series, the novelettes “Spider Silk” and “Grace” are set in new fantasy environments. ­
VERDICT Whether exploring the backstory of Mia the banshee (“Dirty Magic”) or trying out a different sort of supernatural creature (e.g., the dryad in “Temson Estates”), this collection should attract Harrison’s sizable fan base.
