ISBN: 1-4165-0893-7
A collection of all new short stories, set in the universe of Lackey & Edghill's Bedlam's Bard series.
Since this is a collection of stories by different authors, it's a bit of a challenge to write a good review. One of my favorites was "Unleaving" by India Edghill, a story about a pair of young elves who are enchanted by the very human magic of the movies in the early days of Hollywood. Another that I enjoyed was "Old Order" by Michael Longcor, about an Amish man during his years of freedom falls in with a bad crowd and is rescued by his father and the elf who's grove is on the family farm. My overall favorite was "The World's More Full of Weeping" by Rosemary Edghill, about a warrior elf who has been tracking a serial killer who preys on teenagers in malls and how she finally catches and deals with him.
Rating: 8 out of 10.
