The stories range from urban to high to historical fantasy - she's a weird and goofy sense of humor that occasionally threatens to get out of hand. Small doses at bedtime sent me to sleep with a smile. (February 20, 2006) ( ) An enjoyable collection of short stories from Tanya Huff, with cameos from vampires Vicky and Henry (one story each). As with most short story collections, there was one story I didn't much care for (All Things Being Relative) and one that made me smile (Nights of the Round Table). The headline quartet of stories about Terizan are solid and avoid the cliches of thief stories. Tanya Huff is delightful, her short stories are delightful, and I am delighted. A lot of these fall into the urban fantasy/magical realism genre, more or less, which is something she does particularly well, and the final quartet of stories about a brilliant, principled, lesbian thief could not possibly be targeted more directly at me. None of them are particularly highbrow, but that's kind of the point. I don't have the book with me, and it's taken me a while to get through the whole book. Some of the entries I've already read in the anthology Blood Ties. I enjoyed the entries dealing with an elemental force being given a human body. The wizard enclave was amusing. I didn't care for the several stories centered around the thief Terizan. For me the thief element in fantasy is a little overdone. Overall it's an uneven anthology. With some stories not quite finding their narrative voice, while others sing with possibilitites. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
