Resumen del Editor

Collected here for the first time are all of the tales from the land of Tortall, featuring both previously unknown characters as well as old friends. Filling some gaps of time and interest, these stories, some of which have been published before, will lead Tammy's fans, and new readers into one of the most intricately constructed worlds of modern fantasy.

Fascinating, Immersive Tales, Well Told

A great collection of fascinating stories, each with unique characters struggling for self-identity, who are searching for place/fit and a life of meaning, each adventure unique in a fully realized world. Highly recommended...

Wonderful

I grew up with the Tortall books so reading this collection at 28 felt very special & lovely indeed especially now that I am physically disabled & in need of escapes.

Wonderful Collection

I love the way Pierce writes and her characters resonate with me in so many ways. Since I already have a print copy of this, it was interesting to hear it read in different voices than my own. It was also good to hear names pronounced the way Pierce intended them...

Revisiting old friends and discovering new ones

Would you listen to Tortall and Other Lands: A Collection of Tales again? Why?

Yes! The stories are excellent

What did you like best about this story?

Revisiting Kitten!

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I was annoyed by how the narrator (in the Kitten story) pronounced Emperor Kaddar's name. I fell in love with the Full Cast Audio renditions, which pronounced it "Ka-Dar" - this narrator said "Cadder" which drove me nuts.

amazing

This book has helped me understand the world of Tortall. Tortall has opened up more for me.

Absolutly perfect! I loved it!

Just like each and every single book by Tamora Pierce, absolutly fantastic! I grew up with the story about Daine and have enjoyed listening to every story published by Pierce since.
The narrators are chosen well, the stories in this book not too long (or rather, some are to short for my taste...^^) and as always, interesting yet easy to listen too. I loved that we got to know more about the Darkings, who have been my secret favorites and especially to finally meet Kitten again, who I have adored since I first read about her and who I have missed in the Trickster books!
Of course Daine beeing my favorite heroine I was happy to meet her again too.
I can only recomend this book to every young adult (especially girls, though boys can read/listen it too) and even for older people who like fantasy.

Yay!!

Tamora Pierce is wonderful can't wait for her next book!!! Lovely short stories loved the one about Kit!

A feminist perspective of Tortall and Other Lands

Let me start by saying I love Tamora Pierce's writings and I will continue to love them forever.

I didn't realize how much feminism was present in her writings until this anthology. Part of this might be that I'm taking a women, sport, and culture class and quite a few stories in this anthology could be included in our class materials. But really, while listening to this book, just listen. There are definite styles of feminism in these stories ranging from liberal feminism to marxist feminism and just about everything in between.

I loved seeing some of my favorite characters come back up- Numair, Kitten, Aly and Nawat. It was great to meet new characters as well and see the effects of some stories from previous books. I hope she does more anthologies like this in the future.

Overall, Wonderful. I loved it.

Amazing astounding just eight

Lets do the time warp again. Put your right good I'm put your left foot in now we all fall down.
