Received the rather excellent Dreamsongs by George R R Martin. It's a collection of his short stories over the years. It's not just fantasy, there's science fiction and horror too. Only just started reading it, but it looks great.

Some of the stories even won Hugo and Nebula awards. One even won the Bram Stoker award and yet another won the World Fantasy award.

Very Happy
