Review: Good NOVELLA / Short Story, not a book .  Good introduction to some charecters

If you are not familiar with these authors this is a sample.  They are both good authors; although I am much more  partial to Faith Hunter.  But if you start here you would not be able to tell if you liked Faith Hunter or C.E. Murphy as the styles are merged.  Background on both their worlds of magic also helps to understand the rules of the game.  Price allows a splurge on this sample; although this should almost be published even cheaper as a sampler for fans.  No real new insights to either character, but the authors try to stay true to their roots.So if you are already a fan of either writer this is worth it for a fun side trip.  If not, you may be slightly confused without some background, but mostly the story stands alone.  If you don't like the story though it may lead you into avoiding some great series.  The stand alone series are slightly better written, albeit more expensive as they are full books.
