A collection of stories about the world of Deryni. “All the stories in this collection, except the first, fall between the trilogies about Camber and Deryni, and serve to restore the chronology. The overall narrative was clearly missing some episodes necessary for the plot and for its further development in the future novel. Three stories were written specifically for this collection and have never appeared in print before. Another one was out of print for some time, and the rest were not widely distributed. Regarding the novels, they are all canonical - that is, they are completely consistent with the plots. Most are even based on episodes or characters that are mentioned in the novels. And some stories, among other things, hint at what will happen in future books." (K. Kurtz).
