Rating: Summary: Myths of Magic Review: I wanted ten stars but they wouldn't give it to me. So I had to make due with 5. That should tell you most of what you need to know about this book. But I'll give you a little more info to help you decide to get this book. For one thing, it has many of the great authors of the Magic: The Gathering novels. But with it's interesting stories this book is a one of a kind, great for all M:TG players and readers. One book this summer, Myths of Magic is it. Read this book!

Rating: Summary: A great place to start the series Review: Its hard to find good fantasy shortstory collections. Everyone is always devoured by those epic trilogies. MTG isn't really an epic, which is probably why it is less popular (and the fact that it is related to a card game). But this is one of my favorite anthologies. Every tale is wonderfully told, and many of them are very original. The first myth, "Blue Moon," is a clever and interesting story. "Isle of the Damned" is a more haunting story, but very memorable. "Leviathan" is an amusing tale, similar to those flood myths we've all read about. "Phyrexian Creations" is a deep, dark story about Yawgmoth. My favorite myth, "The Deathbringer," is surprisingly original and very compelling. I highly recommend this collection to all readers. The MTG series is an interesting series, yet underrated. Look out for other anthologies like "Colors of Magic" and "Rath and Storm."
Rating: Summary: Great book! Review: Jess Lebow's second MTG anthology edit, this book is better than the year's previous, Colors of Magic. In addition to the exciting tells of the folklore of Dominaria, there is also a preview chapter of J. Robert King's novel Invasion (October 2000) where Phyrexia let's it's thousands of ships and armies fight for Yawgmoth's homeland (to true MTG storyline fans, the book is worth it just for the chapter alone). It was a pleasure reading the book with such a good array of writers. I hope you all enjoy it too.

Rating: Summary: Interesting stories in one anthology Review: Some of the stories here are great. One of my favorites is the one on Yawgmoth's rise and reign of power. Some of the stories are incredibly gory and 'graphic', at least for a book. An interesting Anthology that I enjoyed even more than Colors of Magic.
