'Women . . . are making us examine tenets and shibboleths we thought were immutable,' notes Harlan Ellison, as quoted in Sargent's introduction to this influential feminist series of anthologies, 'The mightily thewed warrior trip is one of these. People like Ursula Le Guin, Joanna Russ, Kate Wilhelm, and Doris Piserchia are making that seem hideously ridiculous.' Many of these writers and more are included in this trio of mass-market paperbacks, all featuring alluring bubble-lettered titling and atmospheric cover paintings by Charles Shields.
All three books have clean, unmarked interiors and tight, square spines with some minor cosmetic creasing. A few instances of light edge-wear, gently bumped corners, and subtle creasing, but nice solid copies overall. Mass-Market Paperbacks.
