Actually, there is a second series, so it's a hexalogy in toto. None
of it extremely exciting. Unless you've got a Hansens' disease fetish...

About the worst you can get from Roger Z. Decent by common fantasy
standards, but really not too hot. Read anything by him but that.

The etalon. No more, no less. 'nuff said.

Some of it pretty decent, as I recall. I still stand and fall by "The
Last Stand", though.

Sounds familiar, but that's about it.
