I was pleasantly surprised that the former, even though written in the late eighties, still has that "certain something" that makes Vance a cherished acquired taste*. Highly recommended.* Yes, I know, some of you don't like JV. Unfathomable .

I believe I was in junior high and needed a book to bring on vacation with my family, and I usually read what my brother had chosen to read up until that day. That day (at B. Dalton), I went out on a limb and chose that first book all on my own. In addition, growing up I was always quite small, and in junior high I felt the world of guys was progressing without me (in gym I was beginning to be really outpaced in strength and speed, let alone athletics after school), so reading about Pug at that point in my life really resonated with me. It's pretty standard fantasy literature that I think most people would enjoy, not particularly cerebral or groundbreaking, but it has a special place in my library. I revisit Midkemia every once in a while, and it's like coming home.
