Amazon.com description: Product Description: Stephen R. Donaldson's unique talents have placed his work alongside that of J.R.R. Tolkien and established him as a writer with the rare ability to expand readers' imaginations. Now he presents a magnificent new collection of eight stories and novellas-three of which have never before been published. This outstanding volume commences with the fablelike title story, "Reave the Just" which highlights one of Donaldson's favorite themes: the individual's power to overcome adversity. This collection also introduces the morbid, soul-taking hero of "Penance" the mysterious beggar woman in the dark fairy tale "The Woman Who Loved Pigs" and the pampered antihero forced to make a choice between virtue and vice in "The Djinn Who Watches Over the Accursed" Boasting exotic settings and suspense fueled by sudden plot twists, Reave the Just and Other Tales is a testament to Stephen R. Donaldson's talent to spin unforgettably spellbinding stories, and the astonishing scope of his mastery of magic and myth.
