A fugitive child finds shelter with a monster of legend.

A mind-blind scholar outwits the mages who disdain him. A gold mage must secure a bank vault from a monster capable of obliterating entire cities. An aging basketweaver wakes up one morning to find a brand new river in front of her house. A palace-sized octopus seeks to defend his city from a living fortress of bone—if he can get his arms to cooperate.

In these twenty-four short stories set in the world of Mage Errant, John Bierce explores the murky depths of history, forgotten corners of Ithos and beyond, and the strangest reaches of magic itself.

Includes a special note from the author.

Adds so much to the world. Loving them all. Need some to fill 30 min, listen to a story or two. These are all really awesome.

Love the little stories

Possibly the best anthology I’ve ever heard. Not only was it long enough to be worth the purchase, but each stories were fun, interesting, and expanded the lore or the world in unexpected ways. 10/10 would recommend.

Absolutely loved this!

After finishing Book 7 I was hungry for more, and this collection of short stories was a treasured addition to the world-building, bringing more detail and nuance to an already rich lore. I absolutely love the focus on science, economics and politics using this magical backdrop, and I can't wait for more content from John Bierce!

A Grand Extension of a Fantastic World

I honestly still don't know what the Gorgon Incident is. Well I did enjoy all the short stories and learning more about his world and various new characters. I was more hoping for a whole book about the Gorgon Incident with Alustion as the main character or at least a good three to four hours. Instead we got a redacted file report. Still worth listening to just not what I expected or was hoping for.

Good but not what I expected

More world building, introducing or including more backstory of existing characters, more lore and history! A great listen, highly recommend!

The book version of anime "filler" for mage errant, don't skip!

If you love John Bierce’s Mage Errant world/series these short stories are a must read. If you have a friend who doesn’t know if they want to dive into the series, suggest these short stories. They are likely to spark interest.

This series of short stories is an excellent addition to Anastis and the other worlds in the Mage Errant series. Answers a bunch of minor questions raised in the series and creates a few more. I cannot wait for more in this universe!

Excellent addition to the world!

Such a fun collection of side stories that really help to build the world. Truly enjoyed listening to all the random adventures that these new characters got up to

Fun

In my opinion, I find that anthology books are something that listeners will like two or four of the stories and see the rest as somewhat disappointing. However, I believe readers will appreciate every story written in this book, and I hope people will purchase it because they won’t be disappointed.

Enjoyable
