	The View from the Foothills: Lord Darcy, by Randall Garrett
		Garrett has a deft touch; the Laws of Magic are developed clearly enough that we can believe in a magical "science" yet concisely enough that we avoid boredom.
		The amazing thing is that Garrett manages to combine all of these elements into a single book and make it work--this is topnotch police procedural of the classic English kind as well as topnotch fantasy.
		Garrett wrote these classic tales in the 1960's and 1970's; the indefatigable Eric Flint has collected them in a single volume, and I suggest you buy it.

	Reviews of TEST OF TIME by Jayne Ann Krentz
		Garrett had gone on to establish for himself a reputation & consulting business that was now on par with Katy's family's.
		Since Garrett has conducted a very proper courtship (no sexual overtures), this bit of gossip brings Katy's uncertainty and insecurity about Garrett's love for her to the forefront.
		Garrett's tragic and lonely youth was salvaged when Katy's father gave him a job.

	Silverberg bio
		Randall Garrett, an established science fiction writer, lived next door; Harlan Ellison, another promising young novice, also lived in the building.
		Garrett introduced Silverberg to many of the prominent editors of the day, and the two collaborated on many projects, often using the name Robert Randall.
		In addition to the collaborations, Silverberg was writing so much on his own, and selling so much of it, that he was obliged to publish under a number of pseudonyms to avoid oversaturating the market.

	S.T. Karnick on Lord Darcy by Randall Garrett on National Review Online
		That may be why a series as good as Randall Garrett's Lord Darcy stories went out of print for several years, and why it is back today, in an omnibus edition from sci-fi house Baen Books.
		Despite the presence of magic, the puzzles are fairly clued; once Garrett establishes the rules of magic, he sticks to them, and we can trust that all the evidence will be laid before the reader before Darcy presents his ingenious solution.
		Garrett's series is in fact one of the best of the genre-benders, which have proliferated so madly since these tales were first published.

		The Cold War of Garrett's universe is a conflict between the good, noble, and just Anglo-French Empire (comprising much of Western Europe, as well as the Americas) and the nasty, bad, evil Polish Empire (Eastern Europe and significant parts of western Russia).
		More disconcerting is Garrett's use of Rex Stout's Nero Wolfe and Archie Goodwin as the Marquis of London and his assistant, Lord Bontriomphe.
		Garrett really pulled a dirty trick on the reader: the first chapter is told from the killer's point of view, right after he's committed the first murder.

	Dani Zweig's Belated Reviews PS#6: Randall Garrett and Lord Darcy
		For someone whose writing career stretched from the fifties (forties, technically) to the eighties, Randall Garrett's output was surprisingly small.
		Garrett's stories are well-told detective stories, in which these two are called upon to solve serious crimes such as murder and necromancy.

	The Unicorn Girl -- Michael Kurland (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Kurland has always reveled in alternate universes (his continuations of Randall Garrett's "Lord Darcy" stories, set in an alternate universe where the Plantagenets are still on the throne and magic works do full justice to Garrett's concepts and characters), and here he takes the idea and runs with it.
		Their mutual friend Randall Garrett based his briliant wizard Sir Thomas Leseaux on T.A.Waters, and Kurland takes us through Garrett's universe on the trip, by the way.
		He also plays a neat little trick with the inherent possibilities of alternate universe travel that i had never thought of nor encountered elsewhere, having to do with just how close adjacent alternate universes can be.

	Randall Garrett: Takeoff!
		Again, because of Garrett's deftness with an ending and his odd way of looking at the world, saying anything specific about this war story is saying too much.
		In these satires, Garrett's love for his targets shows and he doesn't stoop to ridiculing them or attacking them, as frequently happens in satire aimed at a single object.
		Garrett wisely puts a warning not to read these verses if you are not familiar with the original, for he gives away the entire plot, while retaining much of the tone of each novel, or at least the author.

		In these stories Randall threw in as many puns and allusions to spy and mystery novels and series as he could.
		It's great to see paperback publishers bringing out "unitary editions" of OP classics for the benefit of those who were too young to know them when they first appeared (or have read their original copies to rags), and Garrett's Lord Darcy trilogy is one of the best choices this particular house could have made.

		All the Lord Darcy stories are here, from the very first one, "The Eyes Have It," to "The Napoli Express." "Too Many Magicians" is a great fun read, long enough to develope several characters and fill in a lot of the background of the Empire.
		Randall gives the impression that the stories were happening at the time of writing, in a parallel universe.
		In the 1960's of an alternative universe and with elements of Nero Wolfe, Sherlock Holmes and The Man from U.N.C.L.E., you have a delightful combination of fantasy and who-done-it.
