Helpful Score: 1
Dreams and Swords is a wonderful sampler of Katherine Forrest's writing. The short stories (one is the initial chapter of a novel) range from her well-known mysteries to science fiction. All held this reader's interest; many demanded a re-read or two.
Each story involves at least one lesbian character. In many of the stories, however, the gender orientation of the characters is simply a fact, not the focus of the story.
Readers of Forrest's novels will be delighted to recognize familiar characters. They will also, of course, be delighted to meet new characters. In Dreams and Swords, Katherine Forrest shows her skill with the short story genre matches that of her novel writing.
