We are introduced to a new, ambiguous talent, in bad odor with any official dramlitz, a seeming compulsion to read the Luck. Exploring the new is somewhat interesting, and bits of familiar are there for company. A short additional narrative of a restored Daav and Aelliana which is meant to and does bring on a smile. ( ) Two stories - a Luck in Low Port, which shows yet _another_ aspect (or two, or three) of Liaden culture. It's also a great story, with characters I hope we see more of. The second is an outtake; it's not quite a complete story, but it shows Daav and Aelliana meeting up with Kamele, and what ensues. It's actually less detailed than I'd like - very little dialog, just Daav musing on the interaction - but an enjoyable read. Not what I would have expected, but nice - and with interesting implications for future interactions. Like all the Liaden stories, a fun read. Mar Tyn eys'Ornstahl is a Luck, which isn't always a good thing, especially on Solcintra, where people know what it means. Things happens around Lucks; they're not always good things. Mar Tyn, for instance, has recently lost his home and his savings, suffered some serious injury, and brought harm on people he might previously have considered friends, and wound up in the bakery, school, and stronghold that is the home of Don Eyr and Serana fer'Gasta. He's going to draw trouble on these kind people who have rescued him and treated his injuries, unless he gets away from them, and yet his Luck keeps drawing him back to them. Life in the Liaden universe is never easy, but it's also never dull. This is a great story that I enjoyed very much. The bonus extra here is essentially an outtake scene, that didn't quite fit in either Neogenesis or Accepting the Lance (not yet out when I write this.) Kamele, Daav, and Aelliana need to get properly acquainted. It's slight--as I said, just an outtake scene--but delightful. All in all, recommended. Enjoy!
