This was a short story, but a very good one. It helped me figure out why Scattach and Joan had such a good relationship.4 stars!Scatty and Joan being badasses. What's not to like?
Disappointingly short. This deals with the 'death' of Joan at the stake, and how Scatty manages to rescue her. I enjoyed this short tale more because it was told from an independent viewpoint, that of an English archer.

And while a more practical part of me was noting how highly impossible it would be for Scatach to swat scores of arrows out of the air even with her supernatural reflexes, there was still a lot of action and excitement for me just to kick back and have fun while I read it.I think the story

While I knew this would be a short story, I was still anticipating something a bit more substantial than a 16 page story. And I also guess I misunderstood when I expected the story to cover more than it does. The title tells you exactly what you will read about in this tid-bit. There are certainly no more details, which I guess the author feels are well enough addressed in one of his full-length stories (The Necromancer if I'm not mistaken).So once over the surprise and disappointment regarding
https://thebookloversboudoir.wordpres...This is my first time reading the author. Maybe this short story would be more enjoyable if youd read the full-length novel in the series. Or maybe not. The premise is interesting and piqued my interest. The story doesnt live up to its potential. Its rather flat and dry, just a recounting of Joans rescue from her execution by a mysterious red-headed warrior. There is no attempt to develop character even a little bit. Just because its a short story doesnt
