I can't remember exactly, but it was *Somebody* Bear. Unfortunately, I left the book @ home or I'd be reading it all day instead of the other collection I'm 1/2 way through. The OTHER collection is not nearly as much fun so far (I DID get through your first 3 stories yesterday. Quiet day.), though I did find a few stories in it that I liked quite a lot. More surprising is that they're relatively modern stories. It's pretty rare that I like the newer stories in a collection better than older ones, particularly when it's a collection of "ghost stories" & the newer ones are NOT what I'd classify as ghost stories. Anyway, it looks like the promise of reading YOUR collection when I'm done is the motivation I need to finish the OTHER collection, so I'm forcing myself to postpone the pleasure of delving further into _Whisper of Blood_ today. Also, the other collection is a 2nd hand paperback & I'm less worried about carrying it about in the rain & getting lunch on it than I am your lovely new book.
