Make Believe brings together twelve essential stories by this acknowledged master of fantasy: seven from his renowned Tom Rynosseros saga, three from his equally celebrated Wormwood story cycle, and two other award-winning tales, "The Man Who Lost Red" and "The Last Elephant," to show the range, versatility and sheer exuberance of the Dowling enterprise. This is science fiction and fantasy as it should be: beguiling, beautifully crafted and quite unforgettable.
