| I haven’t read many (or any) Italian fairy tales—the German and the French suck up a lot of oxygen in this genre--but if The Orange Curse is true to its source material, I’ll have to rethink that. There’s a wealth of invention here: fairies, curses, ...more | |

| This story is all kinds of fun. As mentioned, we have a mixed bag of...species?....showing up in a roughly contemporary (maybe slightly futuristic) setting to keep the pot boiling. I loved the beginning with its suggestions of a trip down a rabbit ho ...more | |

| The author has a fun concept here. Much of the story is cute and humorous--one part I especially liked is the creation of a (very!) realistic robot Cosmo who takes his place while he goes on adventures, so his family won't figure out that he's gone. ...more | |

| The Welsh Traitor's Daughter is a good and absorbing read. There's a lot of detail about life in medieval Wales, Ireland, and England. I was interested to find that, though both the Irish and Welsh are Celtic peoples, there were still many difference ...more | |

| Very impressive--tight prose with nice imagery, snappy dialogue, excellent editing. The story grabs you and doesn't let you go--I finished this more quickly than I'd planned, kept going back for more when I was supposed to be doing something else. I ...more | |

| Given that these are Persian stories from a time after the Muslim conquest, I was rather vaguely envisioning something like the Arabian Nights. There are some surface similarities--the characters include fishermen, sultans, kings and beggars, but cru ...more | |

| The Shrouded Isle saga continues, and there seems to be material for several more installments, with new characters and new complications introduced. The Fae Queen's proxy war, sending changelings against the villagers, flares up just at the end of t ...more | |

“The chief business of the gods is to give protection and assistance to such of their people as require it; but...they cannot give any help until it is demanded, the free-will of mankind being the most jealously guarded and holy principle in life; therefore, the interference of the loving gods comes only on an equally loving summons.”

“It is true that the virtues which are less esteemed and practiced now--independence, self-reliance, and the willingness to bear risks, the readiness to back one's own conviction against a majority, and the willingness to voluntary cooperation with one's neighbors--are essentially those on which an individualist society rests. Collectivism has nothing to put in their place, and in so far as it already has destroyed then it has left a void filled by nothing but the demand for obedience and the compulsion of the individual to what is collectively decided to be good.”

Hi Eric! I'm really enjoying Sean's Saga so far. I especially love the line Fiona says when they're in the library talking about prophecies and she goes, "This one must be about you Sean, it doesn't make any sense." I really giggled at that.
