AFTER THE KING

A short story collection edited by Martin Greenberg
(1994, TOR Books)
 
 

Various short stories inspired by J.R.R. Tolkien.

 
 
 
   

-- First reading (trade paperback)
November 12th to 24th, 1998

 
   

This was less a tribute to Tolkien than simply a group of fantasy short stories.  Some had explicit references to Tolkien and his works, with riddles, dragons hoarding treasure, the supremacy of good over evil and nature over technology.  But even those were not really in his style.  I guess it's hard to write an epic short story.
