Here There Be Tygers & Frost and Fire
Has anyone read these short stories? Simply beautiful. Tygers portrayed a fabulous world of fanciness and dreams. Could you imagine stumbling upon such paradise? Frost and Fire. Just remembering such a tale sends chills up my spine. The brutality of such a civilization confounds me, and yet is is all these people know. Sim's intense desire to live and change his short life is amazing, considering he never knew of another life. To live a lifetime in eight days is unthinkable to me. Does it not amaze you the life of these people?

I have read both of the stories, but not recently. In fact, I find it hard to remember the details from the stories, so I should re-read them.

Highly recommended. I was currently in history seminar when I began Frost and Fire, and couldn't put it down! Failed the lecture exam however..
