Who's excited?

ETA: A brief description of what to expect:

Collected here for the first time are all of the tales from the land of Tortall, featuring both previously unknown characters as well as old friends. Filling some gaps of time and interest, these stories, some of which have been published before, will lead Tammy's fans, and new readers into one of the most intricately constructed worlds of modern fantasy.



Just Finished: Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins
Currently Reading: Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins

Novel Count for 2010: 38

I can't bring myself to get excited about this when I really, really just want to read Mastiff now. Haha

That being said... what are the odds that she'll throw us a bone and tell us something new about Kel in this collection?

Ya rly! I just reread PotS and I'm always annoyed by how little we find out about Kel after her books are over. Sure, she had that cameo in Trickster's Choice, but seriously. Kel is my favorite.

I know! But timeline-wise, I think we're only up to 1 year or maybe 2 years after Lady Knight - there is nothing after that yet!!! Damn Beka and her 300 years in the past setting! I love Beka, but WHY does she have to be set in the past??
