Legends: Short Novels by the Masters of Modern Fantasy is a 1998 anthology of 11 novellas (short novels) by a number of English-language fantasy authors, edited by Robert Silverberg. All the stories were original to the collection, and set in the authors' established fictional worlds. The anthology won a Locus Award for Best Anthology in 1999. Its science fiction equivalent, Far Horizons, followed in 1999.
The collection has a sequel, Legends II, published in 2003.
A re-release was published by Voyager in which Legends was split into two halves, both titled Legends.
In 1999 Tor Books decided to divide and re-release Legends in a three book series.
Legends Vol. 3 is not a new collection of stories but a part of book one.
Legends won a Locus Award for Best Anthology in 1999.
