If you liked Marion Zimmer Bradley's Sword & Sorceress series, you'll enjoy this book too. Great book about strong women and what they do. Breast cancer poem really touched me as my mom died of breast cancer in 2005. For a Daughter was my favorite even though it does not end on a total bright note. The Ivory Comb was a funny folktale! In the Lost Lands is a werewolf story of a sort or rather don't ask Grey Alys for anything! I enjoyed Lee's work as always. You will find some authors you will recognize from S & S and the Chicks series. For a Daughter, Jessica Salmonson The Battle of Crow's Daughter, Gillian Fitzgerald Southern Lights, Tanith Lee Zroya's Trizub, Gordon Derevanchuk The Robber Girl, Phyliss Karr Lady of the Forest End, Gael Baudino The Ivory Comb, Eleanor Arnson The Borders of Sabazel, Lillian Carl Who Courts a Reluctant Maden, Ardath Mayhar The Soul Slayer, Lee Killough Nightwork, Jo Clayton In The Lost Lands, George Martin

I bought this book on impulse and found it much better than I expected. The poem about fighting breast cancer (called "Sacrifices") is worth the price of the book alone. I found the first story, "Emrys" a bit too negative and intense, but there is an excellent variety of other stories in this 326 page volume. "Shadow", a story that contains more than a fair share of suffering, has a sparkling surprise twist ending. My favorite story is "Three Choices: The Story of Lozen". This is a historical fictional account of the historically FACTUAL life of the Apache warrior/medicine woman, Lozen, who fought with Geronimo's band. Regardless of your taste in women warriors, and women winners, there is something for everyone in this book.
