Spirit Fruit: Collected Speculative Fiction (Paperback)

This collection of published stories by novelist Carole McDonnell -- author of the acclaimed multicultural Christian fantasy novels Wind Follower and The Constant Tower-- brings together multicultural concerns, spirituality, and speculative fiction. The fantastical elements in these tales range from contemporary worlds to alternate worlds, from Europe to Africa to worlds yet to come. Crusaders amid spiritual battles and courtly love are side by side with African fairies, the non-verbal inhabitants of a non-verbal world, a dying old Jamaican witch, and Asian princes. In this multicultural age, fantasy and supernatural stories are joined to stories about spiritual journeys in our own world and beyond.
