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

[Kristjan Wager]

I'm like some of her collaborations, and some I dislike. "Shadow of the 
Lion" and it's follow-up are quite good. As for which characters that 
are which - well, the more militaristic ones (the prince, his henchman) 
are probably Eric Flint's, while the kids growing up to become heros 
sounds like Mistys. Don't know any of Freer's other writings, so can't 
guess on that.

I am pretty sure that Misty has admitted that most of her books were 
actually written with Larry Dixon - I think it was basicly alle the 
books after the Last Herald-Mage. Much like David Eddings' books are 
written together with Leigh Eddings.
