Grade 6-9-A true storyteller's voice resounds throughout these tales, half of which are published for the first time here. As Pierce indicates in her introduction, water figures in all of the stories as demon, obstacle, or savior. The intricate thread of each selection will securely tie up readers' imagination and hold it to the end. The triumph of good over evil is a common theme as is the quest for independence and the strength and cleverness of women. In "The Fall of Ys," the author twists a traditional Celtic tale around. "Where the Wild Geese Go" involves an adventure that turns out to be a dream somewhat reminiscent of Dorothy's realization in The Wizard of Oz. In "Icerose," two friends work together to free their land from the power of the Icewitch. "Rafiddilee," written when Pierce was 14, is about a dwarf sold into bondage and his love for a young queen. A humorous tone underlies "The Sea Hag," while magic plays a part in "The Frogskin Slippers." The final tale, "Rampion," is the most intricate and has a welcome, unexpected ending. This is a rich and rewarding collection that will appeal to a wide audience.-Renee Steinberg, formerly at Fieldstone Middle School, Montvale, NJ
