Tortall and Other Lands: A Collection of Tales

(2) YA Eight of these stories were previously published in fantasy anthologies; the remaining three are new. Almost every tale spins on a girl surmounting barriers to come into her power. The tales are easy in the reading and clear in their message, with Pierce's relaxed, accessible language; quickly delineated characters; plots that gallop along; and warmth toward her readers patent throughout.
