Elementary - Edited by Mercedes Lackey


I have long been a Mercedes Lackey fan and her avid reader.  Her elemental series has captured my imagination and interest like few series' have.  She combines turn of the century England, loosely based fairytales and masters of air, fire, water and earth.  I own almost all of this series and when I happened to be in a bookstore the other day and happened upon this treasure I picked it up without hesitation as I didn't have it yet.

I am not the only one who have been sucked into Lackey's universe as this book is a collection of 18 other authors penning their own tales and Mercedes adds her own short story to the end.  Each page turned in this book shows another story, another perspective of the elemental masters universe and it was a very interesting read.  It was nice to have shorter stories to read but still just as captivating as reading a whole novel, in some cases I wished the story was a tad longer!

This novel is the second collection of short stories of elemental masters.

If you have read some of the elemental masters books, this is a delightful read.  If you haven't read any - I wouldn't recommend.  Go read Mercedes Lackey's books first :P
