1 The Spell of the Black Dagger [Book 6 of the Ethshar Series] [MultiFormat]
by Lawrence Watt-Evans
  The author writes: "Long before, I'd come up with the idea for the Black Dagger itself--it's a mildly clever variation on your standard parasitic sword, like Elric's Stormbringer or one of Steven Brust's Morganti daggers, and I've no idea how I came up with it, but I'd included a very brief mention of it in an earlier proposal, and Lester had liked it. So that was my starting point, and that gave me the entire opening of the story, showing how Tabaea acquired the dagger. The next step ... well, ... more info>>

2 The Spriggan Mirror [Book 7 of the Ethshar Series] [MultiFormat]
by Lawrence Watt-Evans
  Every wizard in Ethshar knew that if you needed something special, something difficult to find, that Gresh the Supplier was the man to see. He was expensive, but always delivered. So when the Wizards' Guild finally got fed up with the little green nuisances that called themselves "spriggans," the Guild hired Gresh to fetch them the magic mirror that created the troublesome imps. The wizards thought finding it looked impossible. Gresh thought his methods would do the job. But no one had asked the... more info>> 2007

3 The Blood of a Dragon [Book 4 of the Ethshar Series] [MultiFormat]
by Lawrence Watt-Evans
  Dumery of Shiphaven was a lad with a love of wizardry--and no magic at all. He dreamed of apprenticing himself to a great wizard, but because he had not even a touch of the talent, it was a dream he could never fulfill. He would never apprentice himself to a great wizard, nor even a meager one; no matter how he loved magic and the magical arts, he would never work with wizards or wizardry. That's what Dumery was beginning to think, anyway--until he spied a great wizard humbling himself before a ... more info>>

6 The Unwilling Warlord [Book 3 of the Ethshar Series] [MultiFormat]
by Lawrence Watt-Evans
  When the foreigners confronted Sterren in Ethshar of the Spices, he was uneasy; when they all but abducted him, taking him to an obscure kingdom in the south, he knew he was in a terrible predicament. A predicament some might actually find appealing--he was by heredity the Ninth Warlord of Semma, least of the small kingdoms; he was a noble, and his rank afforded him material privileges, even in a place as insignificant and obscure as Semma. But the office also carried certain terrible responsibi... more info>> 1989
