Good for what it was, not for Avalon.

I think that this book was a very good idea, but it is nothing like The Mists of Avalon, the book it was a tribute to. It was, however, a worthy achievement of those authors who contributed to the book. Some of the stories will be forever memorable in my mind. I loved this book, and I hope that all fantasy fans at least give it credit for effort!
A good read with a lot of variety

Overall, this was a great book with many interesting stories. Most of the stories were either great, or very pleasing to read. However, the only downfall of this book is the fact that a few not-so-good stories made it tough to read at times.
Loved the book

The stories told did an excellent job of capturing the magic found in Marion Zimmer Bradley's Avalon books. It's a wonderful tribute to her writing style, as well as an excellent resource for authors who are capable of MZB's style
