He Said, Sidhe Said and Other Tales

In these seven contemporary fantasies from Tanya Huff, we see a dog’s eye view of loyalty and a cat’s eye view of sea serpents. We learn that some Brownies could use a shave — although cookies will still be sold — and that there are at least two sides to every relationship, no matter how accidental and/or mythical that relationship is. We’re also reminded that however worthwhile it may be to die with purpose, it’s better to live well. Huff’s ability to leaven heartache with humor — and vise versa — gives this collection of previously published stories an unexpected emotional variety. A December release, He Said, Sidhe Said also includes the seasonally appropriate “I’ll be Home for Christmas.”
