description: This collection of stories, set in the same universe as The Innkeeper's Song, deals with such themes as a fish who helps a maiden escape from an arranged marriage to the king, a boy who has unusually tall family members, and a magician who must teach a wicked queen all he knows. The stories range from adventurous to introspective, humorous to suspenseful, but all share Beagle's gift for language and his ability to bring his characters to life. Reprint.
