    About this ebook

    Would you rather dance beneath the waves or hide your smuggled magic there? Welcome to a world of sparkling adult fantasy and science fiction stories edited by Stephanie Burgis and Tiffany Trent and featuring underwater ballrooms of one sort or another, from a 1930s ballroom to a Martian hotel to a grand rock 'n roll ball held in the heart of Faery itself.

    "From the first page, I knew I was in good hands. This is my kind of fantasy -- magic, adventure, and gorgeous writing. The Underwater Ballroom Society is the kind of fantasy that got me into reading fantasy."
    - Patrice Sarath, Author of The Sisters Mederos

    Stories in this anthology:

    Ysabeau S. Wilce, "The Queen of Life"
    Y.S. Lee, "Twelve Sisters"
    Iona Datt Sharma, "Penhallow Amid Passing Things"
    Tiffany Trent, "Mermaids, Singing"
    Jenny Moss, "A Brand New Thing"
    Cassandra Khaw, "Four Revelations from the Rusalka Ball"
    Stephanie Burgis, "Spellswept"
    Laura Anne Gilman, "The River Always Wins"
    Shveta Thakrar, "The Amethyst Deceiver"
    Patrick Samphire, "A Spy in the Deep"

    ”I absolutely adore this collection ... a wonderful, changeable mix of genres, storytelling styles, characters and vibes; I love the central thread of the underwater ballroom – never overtly stressed but always present – and how every author has turned that into something with such a different tone and place. The anthology is wonderful, and well worth a read!” - Kate Coe at Writing & Coe

    "This anthology is an excellent collection of stories and all of them are well worth your time." - Michele at The Monday Review
