Unlikely Heroes (2016) is a standalone short story collection from Gail Z. Martin. The book gathers stories that share a common theme: their protagonists are not the typical sword-wielding warriors or powerful mages of traditional fantasy. Instead, these are ordinary people, misfits, and reluctant fighters who find themselves facing supernatural dangers.

The collection draws from several of Martin’s fictional worlds, offering readers a sampling of her settings without requiring familiarity with any particular series. For readers new to Martin’s work, it serves as an accessible entry point. For longtime fans, it fills in corners of her worlds that the novels and series-specific short fiction do not cover.
