Two Stories of a Tumultuous Time
The Department of the Interior's bloody plot against planet Liad has failed, at least for now, but Clan Korval's firing upon Solcintra, Liad's capital city, to save it from the release of ancient killer machines has resulted in the clan's banishment. Korval has accepted this ruling with glee, but n...more

This contains two short stories. First, “Hidden Resources” tells the story of Natessa/Inas Bharr recovering the hidden Korval children during the Clan’s transfer to Surebleak. It gives a bit more insight into Pat Rin’s son Quinn then the books do, but it is not a particularly memorable tale.
“Moon on the Hills” shows Pat Rin trying to negotiate for right-of-passage on the road to the soon-to-be-installed-on-Surebleak Korval clanhouse. While it could’ve painted a more interesting and complex pictu...more

4/5; 4 stars; A-
Both of these stories take place after 'I Dare'.
The first story concerns the return of the clan's children from the hiding place they took up when plan b was put into effect. It would have been a much better story IMO if the fight between Natesa, Kareen, and the invaders was told in more detail. Still a good story and we see Kareen re-united with her not so beloved brother at the end of it.
In the other story, Pat Rin has to find a place to put Jelaza Kazone (and integral clan hou...more

Hidden Resources is another short story set at the same time as Ghost Ship - it shows the coming home of Clan Korval's treasures - the young children who had been spirited away to safety. They get taken home by Pat Rin's lifemate Inas, which is a tale in itself.
Moon on the Hills is also set in the timeframe of Ghost Ship - Jelaza Kanzone has to be set down somewhere and it has to be near the rest of the main port of Surebleak, so ideally it should be at the end of the main road, but what happens...more

Two short stories that fill in a couple of gaps in the Liaden universe post-I Dare - definitely worth reading for Liaden fans.
I liked the first story especially, as it focused on the characters who have been off-stage in the latter books as well as giving a glimpse of the next generation of the Korval clan.

Every year I look forward to the vignettes for the Liaden universe. This year was no exception. The two stories this year had little glimpses of life on Surebleak and an interlude right after Plan B. Both were enjoyable but sped by too quickly. Luckily the authors are in the process of publishing more stories in this universe, so there is more to look forward too!
This chapbook contains two Liaden series short stories. The first, Hidden Resources describes where Luken & Lady Kareen have been during the course of Plan B. The second, Moon on The Hills describes the arrival of Jelaza Kazone to Surebleak, from an unusual perspective.
Loved it, what a pleasant dabble in the Liaden universe, while I we wait for the next novel.

'TheTree' arrives safely on Surebleak (big sigh of relief!) - Liad-o-phile
