For eleven years, the Bards and Sages Quarterly has introduces readers to an eclectic collection of talented speculative fiction authors. In this issue: A time traveler attempts to change the course of history and discovers that perhaps someone else already beat him to it in "The Gettysburg Paradox." In "Five Dozen Prayers", a stray dandelion sets a grieving woman on a desperate course to find a greater purpose in a dystopian world where possessing even a tiny plant is illegal. In "Listeners in the Dell", two British Army soldiers set out to investigate disruptions to radio signals and inexplicable sounds originating in an uninhabited rural valley. These and seven other incredible speculative tales await.

When we were young, some of the most memorial tales were the ones that we heard over the sound of a crackling campfire. We heard stories that evoked a creeping sense of unease. We shared tales that caused our blood to run cold, skin to pour with sweat, and vision to turn shadows into ghosts. The stories in this collection are designed to do just that.

Fairy Tale: a wonder tale or magic tale that typically features dwarfs, dragons, elves, fairies, mermaids, talking animals, trolls, unicorns, or witches, and usually magic or enchantments. Myth: a sacred story of the gods; a religious account of the beginning of the world; the deeds of Gods and heroes; as a result of which the world, nature, and culture were created and given order. The Fox and the Rose combines the best of both of these traditions, literary and spiritual, magical and mystical. Most of the tales in this collection follow the recognizable fairy tale scheme: once, in such-and-such a land, there lived ?. There are tests to pass and promises to keep and, if the hero proves worthy, a happily ever after is won. Sometimes, though, the endings are bittersweet or justly tragic, particularly when promises are broken, pride overrules compassion, and respect is denied.
