See all formats and editions
The days of unified culture and singular Great Kingdoms are over. In their place, bold new visions are redefining the world of fantasy. Eight authors tackle stories with a focus on diversity, finding heroism outside the familiar boundaries of farmhands and prince's castles.
Including original fiction from Nicolas Wilson, Carole McDonnell, Michelle Browne, Mags Carr, William Lenoire, Rachel Savage, Kirstin Pullioff, and Gail Villanueva, this collection goes where GRR Martin and Terry Brooks couldn't.

'm not a big fan of anthologies. They are usually uneven. I'll enjoy a few stories, but then the rest will leave me flat. Diversity is coming had a few stories I didn't enjoy, but I'm still happy I purchased the book.

Do I recommend it: Yes
Diversity: 5
Characters: 3 out of Five. Out of the eight stories, 3 were memorable and well written.
Story: 4

Here is a quick breakdown of the three I enjoyed:

"Ayana" by Nicolas Wilson-- a lovely old school story. Written like a fable or fairy tale. It touched on homosexuality and female equality. There was a line towards the end that I absolutely loved spoken by the main character's father who is a playwright: Heroes never die, they simply run out of ink.

"The Girl in the Dem" by Carole McDonnell- Also written like a fable or fairy tale. It tells the story of a young man falling in love with a mermaid. The story was beautiful and melodramatic while still being readable and relatable. My son would like this story because the bad guy won at the end.

"Children of Scale" by Rachel Savage- This one featured a kick-ass heroine on a mission with a bit of romance thrown in for good measure. I wish this had been a novel. I actually googled the author hoping to find a longer version, but I there wasn't.

3.0 out of 5 stars A nice break from the normal nightmare tales I read!

This is a refreshing collection of anecdotal stories filled with inspiring protagonists, relevant situations, and lightly colored antagonists. The short stories read smoothly and quickly. This isn't my normal genres of literature but it was a nice surprising break from my normal nightmare tales!

There were a few good stories in the mix. They all were not winners. I really liked the first and second story. Some were just too weird. But like unsaid some were worth reading.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fantasy that explores diversity.
Reviewed in the United States on April 22, 2015
Seven tales of fantasy that explore traditional themes of coming of age, impossible journeys, love, intrigue and betrayal. Each story carefully builds a world for their characters to inhabit. Then there is the uniqueness of the diversity within each story more than just merfolk and fae, but people with color, nonhuman protagonists, older heroes and a diversity of gender romances. My favorites were the stories by Nicolas Wilson, Carole McDonnel, and Rachel Savage because of their deceptions. The anthology was a fast read but an engaging and enjoyable one.
