Bought this at a library used book sale.

Giving to a friend as part of her Christmas present! Enjoy!

Received from my good friend KateKintail for Christmas. Thanks so much!

Ooh, there's a story by Christopher Stasheff in here. He's the father of one of my childhood (and ever since) friends. Looking forward to it!

I don't read anthologies very often but a friend gave this to me because it has a Christopher Stasheff story in it I hadn't read. Like most anthologies, it is a mixed bag, but the majority are quite pleasant reads, all related to Christmas in some form. The only sour note was Gael Baudino's "Tidings of Comfort and Joy", which had a lame story and one-dimensional characters. But the rest were charming. I think my favorite might have been "I Sing of a Maiden" by Judith Tarr, but then I always was a sucker for time travel, however subtle. If you can overlook (or skip) Baudino's story, it's a good book for reading by the fireplace.

Bringing to today's BCinDC meetup. If no one claims it, it'll go on the OBCZ shelf.
