Some Hits In This Fun Anthology
Boondocks Fantasy - Jean Rabe (Editor), Martin Greenberg

I picked this book up for the cover and title. I made a deal with myself that I would go to the library and shelf surf for one book a month that was just too much uniqueness for me to pass up. I have been looking at this one for months it was calling to me daring me. I had to take it home.

 

I read it, and I liked all the stories except maybe three. They where just not my style of read at all. Many of these authors are not even seasoned writers, they are gaming programers, grandmothers, bird wranglers... a very mixed bunch with some very interesting little tales. Most were tales of county mysteries with otherworldly woo hoo. One story stood out different form the others. It was a heartbreaking read of lose and recovery after, Black Rider, It was very well done.

 

I am not a fan of anthologies at all but this one gave me a nice break from the popular authors and a fresh playing field for my mind to wander into.

The Finest Creation
The Finest Creation - Jean Rabe The Finest Creations look like horses and if you didn't know any better you would think they're horses, they're magical creatures who can talk telepathically to their riders and who are completely moral. A young Finest is parted from it's mentor before it can be invested with it's assignment. Evil forces ambush them and the finest accepts charge of the two orphans that they find. He is unaware of the importance of these two children, this Finest had to muddle his way through his assignment. I enjoyed the read, even if it did remind me of several other series of this type.

Return to Quag Keep - Andre Norton,Jean Rabe A sequel with none of the charm of the original, a directionless plot, and when felt like a deliberate mission to destroy the characters.
