I liked this book, as all the stories in it were very good, but I did have some minor complaints:
1. all of the stories are novellas (ie they're too damn long for my relatively short attention span)
2. There are several blatant discrepancies between the stories (the one that I can remember being that in one story it is rather explicitly stated that the company wouldn't be stupid enough to recruit a gully dwarf and in the very next story a gully dwarf soundman plays a large part)
3. Apparantly the company has a huge turnover, as only one character except Sebastius (the theatermaster) makes a second apperance in any of the stories (Now, This is a little harsh, but the idea of the entire troupe changing every few years or so just seems rather ridiculous to me). I feel that this book would have been much better had all the authors sat down and talked about their stories with each other, so there won't be things like illusionists providing the scenery in one story and nothing even similar in the next.

This book is defienetly cheese. Cheese is the only word that I can use to describe it. READ IT Cheese.
