Not bad at all

Some quite lovely short stories in this one here. Some are better than others but the ones I really liked are gems so I think this book is definitely worth a read. Though if you are strictly a Sabriel series fan looking for more YA type adventure lit in that vein then you might not enjoy the author writing in other styles about other things not related to that series and you may only like the Nicholas Sayre story. But I found that one just okay. Most people seem to think that is the best story in the book but I very much disagree. The ones based on Arthurian characters are really very good.
