Some of the stories in this book were really good, while others I didn't really like at all. I tried to post a longer review for this book but it wasn't being accepted, so I'll simply sum up by saying my favorite stories in this anthology were Cold Spell by Donna Andrews, The Nightside, Needless to Say by Simon R. Green, The Price by Anne Bishop, Fairy Dust by Charlaine Harris, The Sorcerer's Assassin by Sharon Shinn, Palimpsest by Laura Anne Gilman, and Justice is a Two-Edged Sword by Dana Stabenow.

There are many great short stories here, but Charlaine Harris' contribution helps the reader of her Sookie books understand the faries' presence in her life. Sharon Shinn, Anne Bishop, Laura Anne Gilman, and Simon Green all contribute excellent stories.

I enjoyed all of the stories included in this book. Despite the common sleuthing thread, they are a very eclectic collection with something for almost everyone; one told from a raven's perspective, one sci fi, one about faeries, one about a mage with a cold, one about Egyptian gods in modern Cairo...
