This incomparable annual compilation of the best short fiction and novellas features an unmatched variety of the quietly weird, the merely eerie, high fantasy, modern Lovecraftian horror, nightmarish near-future scenarios, the darkly humorous, the supernatural, and the monstrously mundane from the brightest new talent, legendary authors like Joe R. Lansdale, Tanith Lee, and Gene Wolfe, and bestsellers such as Holly Black, Neil Gaiman, and Sarah Langan. Includes a 36,000 word novella by George R.R. Martin set in his A Song of Fire and Ice universe.
Тайны. Маленькие женские тайны. Тайны, которыми можно поделиться лишь со случайным попутчиком в самолете. Удобно? Безопасно? Возможно... Но помните, женщины, - все, что вы когда-нибудь скажете мужчине, может быть рано или поздно использовано против вас! Если, конечно, вы не способны разузнать и его секреты, а потом отплатить ему той же монетой... With the same wicked humor, buoyant charm, and optimism that have made her Shopaholic novels beloved international bestsellers, Sophie Kinsella delivers a hilarious new novel and an unforgettable new character.
