Folks,

"The Eleventh City" has just appeared in the anthology _Graven 
Images_, edited by Nancy Kilpatrick and Thomas S. Roche 
(Ace/Berkley Publishing Group; ISBN: 044100766X; $13.00).  
The usual disclaimer applies--I have no personal interest in pro-
moting the publisher, either of the editors, or anybody else--but 
since it had been discussed on the list, I thought people might like 
to know.  

The title of the anthology for which "The Eleventh City" was 
originally written had been _Grotesques_, but either that project 
folded or the book's title was changed--I don't know which, since 
I never knew who were to be the editors and publisher of 
_Grotesques_.  

My old query about this story appears below.
