Is it possible to create a forgery of a soul so convincing that it is better than the soul itself?

From Brandon Sanderson, the bestselling author of the Mistborn Trilogy and co-author of the final three books of Robert Jordan’s Wheel of Time series, comes the tale of Shai, a heretic thief who is the only hope for the survival of an empire. Shai is a Forger, a foreigner who can flawlessly copy and re-create any item by rewriting its history with skillful magic. Though condemned to death after trying to steal the emperor’s scepter, she is given one opportunity to save herself. The fate of the kingdom lies in one impossible task.

Epic fantasy is storytelling at its biggest and best, from the creation myths and quest sagas of ancient times to the mega-popular fantasy novels of today. Now acclaimed editor John Joseph Adams (Wastelands, The Living Dead) brings you seventeen tales by today's leading authors of epic fantasy, including George R. R. Martin (A Song of Ice and Fire), Ursula K. Le Guin (Earthsea), Robin Hobb (Realms of Elderlings), Kate Elliott (Crown of Stars), Tad Williams (Of Memory, Sorrow & Thorn), Patrick Rothfuss (The Kingkiller Chronicle), and more.

One thing’s for sure—your adventure will be epic.
