The Dragon and the Stars is a 2010 science fiction and fantasy anthology that includes a contribution from Susan Ee. The collection features original stories inspired by Asian culture and mythology, with authors drawing on Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and other Asian traditions. Published by DAW Books, the anthology appeared a year before Ee self-published Angelfall, the book that launched her career.
Ee is a Korean-American author best known for the Penryn & the End of Days trilogy, a post-apocalyptic YA series about a girl who teams up with an injured angel. The Dragon and the Stars represents some of her earliest published fiction, before Angelfall became a breakout success and earned a spot on Time Magazine’s list of the 100 Best Fantasy Books of All Time. Readers interested in Ee’s range beyond her main trilogy will find this anthology worth seeking out.
