Great Resource
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
Wonderful resource for school nurses who often have to assess areas of the body they have not had to think about for a good while. And at the price, it is certainly affordable. Assessment skills have not changed much in the past 14 years!
A *must have* !
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
A definite 'must have' for anyone who has enjoyed the Valdemar series. It gives wonderful behind-the-scene tidbits, ties all the stories together, and whets your appetite for more. The maps could be more numerous, but the astonishing detail of those provided almost makes up for it.The 'travelers guide' is a very enjoyable read, and it is worth buying the book just for that.I have taken to buying Misty's books in hardcover now - it is well worth the extra money to have larger print and a hardier binding that will withstand repeated reading.

For series fans
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
THE VALDEMAR COMPANION is exactly what the title says it is, a complete reference book for fans of the series not different than many other similar tomes. It contains a glossary of names and places important to the Valdemar world as well as a synopsis of each book. Besides the standard articles on culture and people, this book also includes the unique element of a well-written novella by Mercedes Lackey, author of the eighteen Valdemar novels. Though clearly for the Valdemar mythos audience, fantasy readers in general will enjoy this companion volume.Harriet Klausner
