Summary: Excellent short story collection!
Comment: From inside DJ:
Here are tales of sinister sorcerers and wizards, eerie ritual sacrifice and dank dungeons that trap dashing adventurers. Here are royal intrigue, mad kings, and the machinations of evil lords. In short, here's a collection of swashbuckling thrills, romantic delights, ominous foes- and undaunted heroism.
Revel in such stories as "Tower of Ice " by Roger Zelazny. Jelerak, the evil sorcerer , had wrongly imprisoned Dilvish in Hell. When Dilvish returns to exact vengeance, he finds Jelerak gone, and Ridley, the sorcerer's apprentice, in charge. And Ridley, terrified of his master's power, imprisons Dilvish once again- this time in a dungeon, where Dilvish's sole allies are a trapped demon and Ridley's beautiful sister....

"A Thief in Korianth" by C.J. Cherryh. Here, the best-selling author of THE BOOK OF MORGAINE tells of GIllian , who steals to support herself and her young sister. But when she picks the wrong pocket , she inadvertently intercepts a scret cylinder. Hoping for a reward, she presents the cylinder to the prince and embroils herself in a conspiracy that puts both her and her sister in peril of the lives....

"Parting Gifts" by Diane Duane. Sironde, and old woman chosen as Defender of the Goddess, must protect her from the evil lord Shadow. But what sort of guard can an old woman be , especially when her codefenders are Tav, a young man whose tales of heroic deeds are nothing but lies, and a kitten who is too frightened to hunt? And yet- fools and weaklings and failures can rely on unexpected assets.....

Also included are "A Dealing with Demons" by Craig Shaw Gardner, and "The Dry Season" by Tanith Lee, author of Sometimes, After Sunset. Five stories that will keep you on the edge of your chair and add a new dimension of excitement to the heroic fantasy genre.
