Tales of Dunk and Egg

Acclaimed writer and editor Robert Silverberg gathered eleven of the finest writers in Fantasy to contribute to this collection of short novels. Each of the writers was asked to write a new story based on one of his or her most famous series: from Stephen King's opening piece set in his popular Gunslinger universe to Robert Jordan's early look at his famed Wheel of Time saga, these stories are exceptionally well written and universally well told....

This anthology implies a binding military-sf theme, but actually the book is an essay in providing lots of different genres between one set of covers. Happily, itś entirely successful. There really is something for everybody in it.
