Reviews
[ STARRED REVIEW ] Elliott's delightful first collection contains pieces set in the worlds of her major fantasy series—the Spiritwalker Trilogy, the Crossroads Trilogy, the Crown of Stars series, and the Jaran novels—as well as several standalone works and four essays about writing. No familiarity with any of the novels is required to understand the stories set in those worlds, but the existing settings lend depth, complexity, and intrigue to what might otherwise be simple tales. Riding the Shore of the River of Death," a bildungsroman about a young female horse-nomad who wants to be a warrior, benefit greatly from the depth of setting, as does the slapstick comedy To Be a Man," about a shape-shifting saber-toothed cat with an eye for the ladies. But the standalones especially shine, and the political intrigue and subtle humor that Elliott brings to the fascinating culture and government system of The Queen's Garden" make it perhaps the finest work in the book. This collection serves beautifully both as an introduction to Elliott and as a treat for fans who want more of her marvels." — Publishers Weekly The Very Best of Kate Elliott does an excellent job of displaying Elliott''s multi-faceted creativity, her huge talent for inventing a variety of worlds without ever sacrificing the sparkling little details in each one that make her writing so compelling." —Katherine Kerr, author of the Deverry Cycle Kate Elliot fits more rich and complex writing into her short pieces than many authors manage at novel length, tackling the social fabric of SF&F with clarity and grace." —Tanya Huff, author of the Keeper's Chronicles and The Enchantment Emporium If you''re a fan of Kate Elliott''s fantasy novels, then you know she knows how to tell an epic.

For fans of epic storytelling, this is a collection not to be missed." —John Joseph Adams, series editor of Best American Science Fiction & Fantasy and editor of Lightspeed Magazine Praise for Kate Elliott Elliott pulls out all the stops in a wildly imaginative narrative that will ring happy bells for fans of Philip Pullman''s His Dark Materials trilogy." — Publishers Weekly Elliott has concocted something very special and original here, with elements to tweak sci-fi and fantasy fans of nearly any stripe, from alt history and steampunk aficionados, to lovers of intrigue, romance, and swashbuckling adventure." — New York Journal of Books A world of depth and color...once you''re caught up in the story, you''re going to spend many pleasant hours." — SF Chronicle Fans of steampunk and alternate history will enjoy this heady mix of magic and technology." — Library Journal High fantasy...entirely captivating." — Publishers Weekly , starred review Elliott''s writing keeps getting better.
