[Mercedes-Lackey] Welcome to the Newbies and ..

[Elena Gwynne]

In terms of her collaborations to date, my favourite has to be "The Ship Who 
Searched" with Anne McCaffrey. I haven't read some of the newer Eric books 
so I can't comment there.

In terms of the first book of her's I read, it was Arrows of the Queen, but 
my favourite has to be Magic's Price.
