The tales are smoothly retold and leave plenty of room for a storyteller to add his or her own stamp to the story.
Sherman well deserves her reputation as a fine and thorough folklorist.

Sherman (The Shattered Oath, Baen, 1995) excels in creating modern myths that draw their imagery from multicultural folk tales.
Her latest fantasy adventure combines the seductive glamour of faerie legend with tales of Sumerian demons in a fast-moving crossworld fantasy that belongs in most libraries.

One can only hope that Sherman and Schwartz are custodians of the legacy for quite some time, since they are adroit at creating a thoroughly rounded, conflicted, and sympathetic portrait of our favorite Vulcan.
Sherman and Shwartz also use the demands of Pon Farr not as a cheap side show, but as a (damn me) logical source of conflict.

 Amazon.ca: Windleaf: Books: Josepha Sherman   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Sherman's readers, unlike Thierry, will immediately suspect that Glinfinial is in fact a princess of Faerie.
However, Sherman's vigorous narrative drive, her fascination with the deep forest which figures so prominently in her conclusion and her dry wit raise this novel to fresh levels of reading pleasure and originality.
Grade 6-8-As in the author's Child of Faerie, Child of Earth (Walker, 1992), this story involves a part-human, part-faerie who falls in love with a human, against parental opposition, and the mortals must go through a series of trials before winning their hearts' desire.
