Japanese Dreams takes the reader to the islands of fire and smoke - where shape-shifters, demons and lovers all populate a landscape blossoming with story. Imaginative contributions by such well-known writers of fantasy as Steve Berman, Eugie Foster, Jay Lake, Yoon Ha Lee, Robert Jordan Levy, Lisa Mantchev, Richard Parks, Ekaterina Sedia, Erzebet YellowBoy, and more, all offer us a glimpse of a silken sleeve or the red fur of the fox as she slips between the rushes, daring us to follow.
