I’ve not posted about this book much of late (well, I’ve not posted that much of late), but Jack Dann and I have, along with the good folk at HarperSydney been putting the finishing touches on LEGENDS OF AUSTRALIAN FANTASY. We’ve just got the final cover in from Greg Bridges, and it’s a peach. The book features some terrific stories by some of Australia’s best known fantasy writers and will be out in June 2010. The table of contents for the book is:

About the Editors
Will this be published in Australia only? I just tried to find in on Amazon US with no luck so I’m guessing Australia only. Any advice on the best way to order a book from there to the US?
Gorgeous cover!
That cover is fabulous.
I’m sure the stories are, too – but, man, that cover. *love*

All my favourite authors in one book can’t wait to get my hands on a copy!
