the blurb

An all-new original short fiction anthology featuring Mercedes Lackey's heroic Heralds and their horselike companions-as penned by these masters of fantasy.


my review

This is another great addition to the series of short stories set within the Valdemar world. These are not all by Mercedes Lackey, but a number of authors. Characters from the original books can be found in many of the stories, joining new characters that fall perfectly with the established world. Also fun, a number of the stories form mini-series with other stories within the Tales of Valdemar series.
