Once again I find that while I enjoyed some of the stories, not all of them were able to keep my interest. I'd recommend this volume anyway if it weren't so deuced hard to find, seeing as it was a limited run. The first one seemed so familiar that I'm almost sure I've read it before. The second took too long to say anything, and when I ended up zoning out, skipping three pages, and was able to pick up the story without feeling like I missed anything, I gave up. The third was told in fairy/folk tale style, and I think you kind of have to be in a particular mood for that to work. It was a decent enough story once I recalibrated. And last, the story by Hobb was also a bit of a slow starter but I found it interesting once it got going. It was sort of a message piece, though, and it was fairly predictable.
