#16 Crossroads and Other Tales of Valdemar edited by Mercedes Lackey

Anthologies like this are a love/hate thing with me. The upside was reading new stories by Lackey and Dixon in Valdemar. The downside is that I read a few that could have been anywhere and didn't feel that much like a "Valdemar" story. My favorite story had to be by Larry Dixon, the story is a direct sequel to a previous short story he had written for the Daw 30th Anniversary anthology. The Lackey piece was a Tamra and Kethry story. Not bad but no real fleshing out of the duo. None of the stories were bad it was just a few of them didn't appeal to me but might to someone else. Overall a good anthology.

The Owl ones felt forced. I'll reread the first two trilogies but but that is about it.
