Her vivid, startling, and thrilling tales and poems of the supernatural--from icy-hearted witches to sometimes-innocent shapeshifters--reveal a classic storyteller at the height of her powers. Welcome to the Midnight Circus--and watch your step. The dark imaginings of fantasy icon Jane Yolen are not for the faint of heart. In these sixteen brilliantly unnerving tales and poems, Central Park becomes a carnival where you can--but probably shouldn't--transform into a wild beast. The Red Sea will be deadly to cross due to a plague of voracious angels. Meanwhile, the South Pole is no place for even a good man, regardless of whether he is living or dead. Wicked, solemn, and chilling, the circus is ready for your visit--just don't arrive late. 505 0 $a Introduction: "Welcome to the Midnight Circus" by Theodora Goss -- "Who Knew I Was a Writer of Dark Stores?" by Jane Yolen -- The weaver of tomorrow -- The white seal maid -- The snatchers -- Wilding -- Requiem Antarctica (with Robert J.
