3.0 out of 5 stars An excellent De Camp tale + a middling Drake piece, 29 Nov 2002

(TOP 10 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This book consists of two unrelated piece of fiction written by two individual authors. L. Sprague de Camp’s The Undesired Princess is your typical de Camp fantasy featuring a practical man thrust into a fantasy realm where magic is very real and unearthly dangers threaten not only the protagonist and the leaders of the realm but, indirectly, the very existence of the fantasy world itself. Rollin Hobart is an exceedingly logical engineer who is recruited (or kidnapped, really) by a strange old man to save the life of his home land’s princess. The successful hero can only succeed by answering a riddle posted by an elephantine behemoth. Pointing out false logic is rather a passion of Rollin’s, but returning back home to New York poses a much harder problem than saving the royal damsel in distress. Finding himself welcomed into the royal family as the soon-to-be husband to the princess, Rollin goes to great extremes, often using his own form of magic, to find a portal back to his world, but to his dismay he only finds himself acquiring more and more authority and power. This fantasy world is most interesting in that it is a two-value world, meaning that something either is or it isn’t. Thus, there is no dusk—night immediately follows day instantaneously, for example. Statements are taken literally (as Rollin discovers after making the statement that he was hungry enough to eat a horse). The method of warfare is especially fascinating. A fair fight involves both armies lining up in equal numbers; when either army gets out of formation in the slightest degree, their logic demands that the minutely disorganized army turn and run. I can’t say that The Undesired Princess is as enjoyable as de Camp’s Harold Shea stories, but it is certainly an interesting and amusing read.

The Enchanted Bunny was written by David Drake, and it is dubbed an homage to L. Sprague de Camp. The story of this piece, which is a novella of less than 100 pages, is similar to de C
