Jubal: ex-gladiator and slave, now a respected citizen (he made his money selling slaves). One Thumb: the crooked bartender at the Vulgar Unicorn ...and even more fantastic characters!Lynn Abbey, Poul Anderson, Robert Asprin, John Brunner, Joe Haldeman and Andrew J Offutt have dreamed up a world of wonders - a fabulous reading adventure!Contents:* Introduction - Robert Asprin* Sentences of Death - John Brunner* The Face of Chaos - Lynn Abbey* The Gate of Flying Knives - Poul Anderson* Shadowspawn - Andrew Offutt* The Price of Doing Business - Robert Asprin* Blood Brothers - Joe Haldeman* Myrtis - Christine DeWees* The Secret of the Blue Star - Marion Zimmer Bradley* The Making of Thieves' World - Robert Asprin
