Synopsis
Fantasy is fueled by spells, from those cast by simple love potions to the great workings of magic that can alter the very nature of reality, destroy seemingly all-powerful foes, offer power or punishment, immortality or death. In Spell Fantastic thirteen of today's authors have crafted tales with which to enchant your imagination.
From a minor wizard running a magic shop who suddenly finds himself the prime suspect in a mysterious murder... to a girl discovering her special "gift" which can reveal who people really are... to a computer with a magic all its own... here are thirteen original tales of spells worked to change destiny for good or ill.
