About This Book

Tender Morsels is a dark and vivid story, set in two worlds and worrying at the border between them. Liga lives modestly in her own personal heaven, a world given to her in exchange for her earthly life. Her two daughters grow up in this soft place, protected from the violence that once harmed their mother. But the real world cannot be denied forever--magicked men and wild bears break down the borders of Liga's refuge. Now, having known Heaven, how will these three women survive in a world where beauty and brutality lie side by side?From the Hardcover edition.

World Fantasy Award for Best Novel (Winners)
The World Fantasy Award for Best Novel has been presented each year since 1975 at the World Fantasy Convention, chosen by a panel of judges rather than by popular vote. It honours the year’s finest fantasy novel, drawing on the whole breadth of the field from high fantasy and fairy tale to its darker and more literary edges. Its winners run from Gene Wolfe and Ursula K. Le Guin to Susanna Clarke’s Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell and Haruki Murakami. Several years have ended in a tie, with two novels sharing the award. This list collects the winning novels by year.
