Martin and Gardner Dozois <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There is something for everyone in <i>Dangerous Women<\/i>, an anthology of 21 short stories each centered on one or more strong female characters.  Many of the stories are science fiction or fantasy tales, as one would expect with George R.R. Martin as one of the editors.  Well known authors penned many of the stories, and several are set in worlds that their authors created and developed in other books, including a story that is set in the world of Diana Gabaldon&#8217;s Outlander series, and one set in George R.R. Martin&#8217;s Westeros before the events in the Game of Thrones books take place.  With the fantasy and science fiction genres so often filled with male characters, it was especially fun to see depictions of so many strong women.  Reading the stories included in <i>Dangerous Women<\/i> was a good way to find new-to-me authors whose books I am now looking forward to reading.<\/p>\n<p>The book can be found on the <a href=\"http:\/\/catalog.sju.edu\/record=b1339857~S9\">First Floor<\/a> in the Popular Reading section.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>July 2014 A monthly offering from Drexel Library\u2019s staff about the books we\u2019ve read.
