On the B&N Sci-Fi & Fantasy Blog, Joel Cunningham reveals top picks for the week of February 10 including THE VERY BEST OF KATE ELLIOTT.

Elliott is known for her expansive fantasies, from the seven-book Crown of Stars series to the recently completed Spiritwalker trilogy, but this collection proves she’s equally adept at writing short fiction. Collecting stories set in worlds both familiar (including the settings of the Spiritwalker books and her Jaran quartet) and new, as well as non-fiction essays about writing, it makes an excellent introduction to the work of one of epic fantasy’s most reliably fantastic writers.

Read the rest of Cunningham’s selection at Barnes & Noble.
