- In March 1987, Mercedes Lackey, a young author from Oklahoma, published her first novel, Arrows of the Queen. No one could have envisioned that this modest book about a magical land called Valdemar would be the beginning of a fantasy masterwork series that would span decades and include more than two dozen titles.
- Now the voices of other authors add their own special touches to the ancient land where Heralds “Chosen” from all walks of life by magical horse-like Companions patrol their ancient kingdom, dispensing justice, facing adversaries, and protecting their monarch and country from whatever threatens. Trained rigorously by the Herald’s Collegium, these special protectors each have extraordinary Gifts: Mindspeaking, FarSeeing, FarSpeaking, Empathy, Firestarting and ForeSeeing, and are bonded for life with their mysterious Companions. Travel with these astounding adventurers in these original stories.

“I’m glad to see a more hopeful attitude in this anthology. Some of the previous ones have been a bit depressing, but this one was full of uplifting tales.” By Paula Goodlett
“Like any multi-author anthology, the quality was uneven. Some of the stories were excellent, a couple were not very good, and one seemed actually to be written for a different world and shoehorned into Valdemar. All-in-all, though, a good set of new entries into the series.” By Bruce Wilson
