It's a collection of his short stories, which has the advantage over the Thomas Convent books in being  much shorter and to the point. As with any short story collection, some were better than others, but on the whole a nice collection. There was even a Berserker short story although it felt formulaic.There seemed to be a recurring theme about the need responsibility for victims to fight back and not wallow in victimhood. That could feel a bit uncomfortable at times (for obvious reasons). But, this is Stephen Donaldson and his themes are never comfortable. Apparently this was around the time of his acrimonious divorce (according to the author), so that may have been the reason.</blockquote>
