Highwaymen: Robbers and Rogues

Rating:
Summary: Entertaining if not envigorating
Review: As always with short fiction anthologies, I liked some of the stories better than others. I didn't dislike any of these variations on "The Highwayman." The assortment was entertaining in general, and stories like, "The Bishop's Coffer," "The Dowry," and "The Forest's Justice" gave me interesting themes to ponder a little. But none of the stories really grabbed my heart as I know from prior experience some of the authors are very capable of doing. All in all this was a fun if not a very engaging collection. I recommend it for light reading and for those who look for "theme anthologies."

Summary: HIGHWAYMEN AND HORSES
Review: Review by Nina Coombs Pykare, author of the Kate Ketterling series, Death Comes for Desdemona, Death Rides a Pink Horse.

The Regency is my period and many of the stories in this collection take place then. Also, I love horses. So this is super book for me. I tried to space the reading out, keep a little for later, but I got carried away and read it all in a hurry. I highly recommend it.
