A FANTASY ANTHOLOGY featuring the deadly, the worldly, and the sneaky. Blackguards consists mainly of stories in established series, and the authors range from wildly successful indie authors to New York Times bestsellers. If you enjoy roguish tales of scoundrels and ne'er-do-wells, this one's for you.
Reviews with the most likes.
Almost all are well written, but almost all also require the reader to be familiar with the respective series in order to enjoy (some even to understand). Overall, I did NOT enjoy the anthology because of that (and some duds), but the literature itself is obviously top level.
