The blurb pretty well covers my opinion of this anthology---a very good collection! I stayed up way, way past my bedtime because I couldn't put it down.
I'm not sure why there's a print of the drowned Ophelia on the cover...)
It has stories by Peter S. Beagle, M. Rickert, David J. Schwartz, Geoff Ryman, Peter Higgens, Ysabeau Wilce, Matthew Corradi, Matthew Johnson, Sarah Totton, Jeffrey Ford, Margo Lannagan, Daniel Handler, Richard Parks, Elise Moser and Benjamin Rosenbaum.

From back cover: Here is a collection of the best fantasy prose written in 2006, by some of the genre's greatest writers, and selected by respected reviewer and editor Rich Horton.
The latest addition to the growing field of annual 'best of' fantasy anthologies include works by established stars [and] many stories that first appeared in small press venues... a diverse mix of styles and themes that illustrate the depth and breadth of fantasy writing today.
