Synopsis: From the back cover of the DAW first edition: "The invitation... The clothes... The theme... The night you'll always remember - or wish you could forget! Was your prom the best night of your life - or did you refuse to attend it? Well, whether you loved it, hated it, or never got one and always wondered if you missed anything - let such imaginative chaperones as Dave Smeds, Fred Saberhagen, A.R. Morlan, Lawrence Schimel, Lawrence Watt-Evans, and Billie Sue Mosiman reveal to you just what might have been going on behind the scenes. From an elf who can only stay in the mortal realm if he gets a date for the prom... to a young man who finds out that forbidden acts sometimes depends on your perspective... to a boy who wants far more from his date than her body... to a girl who gives a whole new slant to the legend of Pygmalion... to a guy who knows he's got to find a date for the prom - even if she's dead... here are twenty-two evenings to remember - and be thankful that none of these people were in your class!"
