These books come placed in a equivalent real life when the SERRAted Edge'' books: that is, the real life using levinbolts & elves world health organization cause race car. At least a single character (Tannim) is seen around two sets of books.

A books were published under Tor's horror imprint rather than when fantasy. At a period of publication, caring depictions of what Wiccans &, extra typically, neopagans believed and did were uncommon.

However, mayhap these are non totally coincident that the similar professional appears as an antagonist within the late ''Bedlam's Bard book.
