Sword and Sorceress II
Sword and Sorceress: An Anthology of Heroic Fantasy, edited by Marion Zimmer Bradley, is the first in the 19-volume Sword and Sorceress anthology series. It included early publications from numerous writers who would go on to have illustrious SF careers.
"The Lady and the Tiger" is Jennifer Roberson's first story about Tiger and Del. Differs from the first book in the sense that the stories tend to evole around "the Chosen Maiden" as Bradley puts it, instead of the rape and revenge stories of the first. -- ce
