I can't wait to get my hands on any new Jane Yellowrock/Beast stories [Faith darlin', now IS the time to quit your day job!]. The Jane Yellowrock World Companion had two mini-micro stories, and one short story/novella - Plus, the first chapter teaser of the next book in the series, Black Arts, to be released January 2014. And for the price? Bargain! I struggled - really struggled: I wanted to give it 5 stars, because the stories were so good, but I docked one star due to the fact that a large portion of the book was taken up with a synopsis of the whole series of all Jane Yellowrock books from inception to present in a nutshell, which I found totally unnecessary.If you are a Jane Yellowrock fanatic you already know all there is to know, so a fast rundown of the whole series all over again is pointless. True fans don't forget, that's why their fans - but I do recognize a lot of hard work here, impecably done, and for that I salute it. The only thing it may be good for is if these books were assigned as a class book report assignment and a student didn't want to read it, but still wanted a good grade. This space would have been much better utilized with more Jane Yellowrock stories - "biscuze" [Angie-Baby inside joke] now my brain is unsatisfied, unsatiated and screaming: "More! More! MOOOOOOOOOOORE!!!" ...  I guess I'll go placate it with some really good fresh brewed tea with lots of sugar + a big dollop of whipped creme on top along with something decadent, chocolatey & sugary on the side ...[I sure wish JANUARY WOULD HURRY UP ALREADY!] ... grumble, grumble, grumble ...
