Summary:
"This is the first story collection ever from the bestselling fantasy and science fiction writer L. E. Modesitt, Jr. He began publishing as a short story writer in the SF magazines in the 1970s, mostly in Analog. Some of the earliest
stories
are kernels for his early SF novels, others display the wide range of his talents and interests, from satire to military adventure. This collection includes selections of
stories
from his entire career, as well as three new
stories
that have never been published before: “Black Ordermage,” set in the world of Modesitt’s bestselling Recluce series; “Beyond the Obvious Wind,” set in his Corean Chronicles universe; and “Always Outside the Lines,” which is related to the Ghosts of Columbia books."--Publisher description
