reprinted in The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction, July 1993 and collected in Dreams Underfoot, 1993 Then reprinted again in Visions of Wonder, 1996 "The [Newford] books have all been written in such a way that you should be able to pick up any one and get a full and complete story. However, characters do reoccur, off center stage as it were, and their stories do follow a sequence."
