Familiars

Kristine Kathryn Rusch, Jody Lynn Nye, P. N. Elrod, Andre Norton, Gary A. Braunbeck, Josepha Sherman, Michelle West and other tale-spinners stir up a witch's brew of original new stories that prove that cats aren't the only suitable familiars. There are dogs, and humans, and even insects that can handle the job! 11 • Searching for the Familiar • [Winston & Ruby] • novelette by Kristine Kathryn Rusch 38 • And So, ad Infinitum • short story by Jody Lynn Nye 54 • First Familiars • short story by Laura Resnick 68 • Dog Spelled Backward • short story by P.
