Fate Fantastic

Fate Fantastic

Fantastic Anthologies: Book 18

Martin H. Greenberg
Daniel M. Hoyt

Do we all have destinies we can't avoid? Or is each of us able to determine our own future by our actions? Are there key moments in time that offer unique opportunities to change fate?

These are just a few of the questions explored in sixteen original tales that follow the paths of fates to distant worlds, dimensions, and times. From a being trained to be something he was not... to a street vendor selling Fate dogs... to the "true" story of King Arthur... to a gambler who turns to the Kabbalah to find a sure bet... to a man whose girlfriend is one of the three Fates... to the tale of one woman's appointment with Death... here are tales of darkness and danger, and stories with a humorous twist-gripping visions of the role fate can play in anyone's life.
