After reading the story that prompted Kathleen to write a series of stories about Marienstadt (The Reluctant Belsnickel,) I just couldn't wait to see what would develop with all the wonderful characters.  The wait, thankfully, is over.  At least the wait for Volume 1 is over.  These stories and characters warm your heart.  Kathleen's style of writing these wonderful short stories is light-hearted and just plain fun.  The characters are the kind of people you wish you knew in real life.  The businesses come to life along with their proprietors and customers.  I've waited some time to read these stories and was not disappointed.  I am now anxiously waiting the next installments.  If you love quirky characters, and like it when the good guy wins, or when good triumphs over evil, you'll love these stories.  Once again, Kathleen delivered in wonderful form.
