More About the Author
Product Description
Review
‘If there is any justice in the world, Stephen Donaldson will earn the right to stand shoulder to shoulder with Tolkien.’
Time Out
‘The most individual of the Tolkien successors.’
Guardian
Product Description
In his first collection of short fiction, Stephen Donaldson, the bestselling author of the Chronicles of Thomas Covenant and the GAP series of SF novels, presents eight superb stories, including 'Gilden-Fire', the famous chapter about Korik of the Bloodguard and his mission to Seareach that was part of the original version of THE ILLEARTH WAR, the second of the Covenant books, but omitted from the published version. Enter a world of mystics and unicorns, angels and kings, all realized with the dazzling style and imagination that has made Stephen Donaldson a modern master of the fantasy genre.

Format:Paperback
Any fantasy fan should enjoy these, intelligent, moral and good stories. Without hundreds of pages of introspection which can make some Donaldson stuff a bit heavy going.

Format:Paperback
With the exception of "The Conqueror Worm", this collection of short stories is some of the best fantasy writing you will see. Donaldson's mastery of the fantasy art is well displayed here and his story telling abilty is at its best with "Ser-Visal's Tale".

Really Great and I'm not even a Steven R. Donaldson fan
9 Sep 2010
Format:Hardcover
I got bored with the Thomas Covenant series and only read the 2nd one because the books happened to be in the free books at the library when it wasnt open. I didn't mind his sci-fi series, either, but it wasn't superb.
This is by far my favorite Donaldson book, and the title novella is awesome.

'Princess Gets Her Own Back!'
17 Oct 2000
Format:Hardcover
In this excellent fantasy short story, the theme of monarchial sucession is dealt with from the insider's point of view.
Of course all is not simple nor magic free (after all this is Stephen Donaldson!), and the heir apparant finds herself pitted against high born rivals, sexy traitors, personal assault and worst of all self doubt..that she is REAL?
Confused? read the book, it is short and unputdownable, and then tell me afterwards....what would you have been?
