[FR] Une anthologie unique d’histoires inédites qui met les auteurs au défi de jeter le gant dans une bataille de genre épique et exige une réponse à l’éternelle question : Qui est le plus génial : les robots ou les fées ?

[EN] A unique anthology of all-new stories that challenges authors to throw down the gauntlet in an epic genre battle and demands an answer to the age-old question: Who is more awesome—robots or fairies?

Des robots déchaînés ! Des fées rusées ! S’affrontant pour la première fois dans un match à mort de genre épique !

Les gens adorent opposer deux choses géniales l’une à l’autre. Robots vs. Fairies est une anthologie qui oppose les genres, la science-fiction et le fantastique, dans un combat épique entre deux icônes.

D’un côté, les robots restent le phénomène classique de la science-fiction dans la littérature et les médias, d’Asimov à WALL-E, de Philip K. Dick à Terminator. De l’autre, les fées sont les icônes bien-aimées et les souveraines incontestées de la fiction fantastique, de la fée Clochette à Tam Lin, de True Blood à Once Upon a Time. Toutes deux se sont révélées infiniment amusantes, flexibles et stimulantes. Mais lorsque vous les opposez l’un à l’autre, lequel triomphera comme le plus grand symbole de genre de tous les temps ?

Il ne peut y en avoir qu’un seul… ou pas ?

Avec une incroyable brochette d’auteurs, dont John Scalzi, Catherynne M. Valente, Ken Liu, Max Gladstone, Kat Howard, Jonathan Maberry et bien d’autres, Robots vs. Fairies vous emmènera dans un voyage pailleté d’un mash-up techno-fantastique à travers les genres.

Rampaging robots! Tricksy fairies! Facing off for the first time in an epic genre death match!

People love pitting two awesome things against each other. Robots vs. Fairies is an anthology that pitches genre against genre, science fiction against fantasy, through an epic battle of two icons.

On one side, robots continue to be the classic sci-fi phenomenon in literature and media, from Asimov to WALL-E, from Philip K. Dick to Terminator. On the other, fairies are the beloved icons and unquestionable rulers of fantastic fiction, from Tinkerbell to Tam Lin, from True Blood to Once Upon a Time. Both have proven to be infinitely fun, flexible, and challenging. But when you pit them against each other, which side will triumph as the greatest genre symbol of all time?

There can only be one…or can there?

Featuring an incredible line-up of authors including John Scalzi, Catherynne M. Valente, Ken Liu, Max Gladstone, Kat Howard, Jonathan Maberry, and many more, Robots vs. Fairies will take you on a glitterbombed journey of a techno-fantasy mash-up across genres.
