I have a story in this collection, "Personal Challenge," IIRC. But I can't seem to get it over to my author list.
Fans of Elfquest should enjoy this series.

I have all five of these books and I've always been bummed that there aren't more. I really wanted to know what happened to each of the story lines.

Another great addition to these anthologies. It's much harder to find a copy of this book than the others.
One of these stories is a to be continued one, but I don't think we ever get an ending......
Ah. Well, if you are a fan of this series you'll like this.
