Coming back into print!...?

From the website of original publisher TSR regarding Paul Kidd: "Up and coming novel releases may include... Mus of Kerbridge (2nd release by Streamline)..."Those of us who have taken immense pleasure from reading and re-reading "Mus of Kerbridge" will be glad to see a second printing hit the shelves. Notice the quote says "may include" - it would be helpful if Mus fans wrote to Mr. Kidd via TSR and to Streamline to help facilitate this reprinting!Perhaps it was the cute and rather silly picture on the cover, but "Mus of Kerbridge" didn't sell nearly as well as the story inside the cutesy cover deserved. I bought it when it first came out, in spite of the cover... and loved it! The story is as enjoyable for adults as it is for children; it has been a well-received and well-read gift many times. It has certainly kept my attention throughout the years and I still enjoy it quite as much as I did the first time!The dialogue is occasionally a bit overdone in my opinion, but can not detract from the overall charm of this well-told tale. The plot is well-woven and the characters have substantial personalities and emotions. They are admirable people, even the enemy queen, showing strength of spirit and courage and a great lesson in appreciation for life.

the return to an old friend

I have already left a message here, but I feel that something else is necessary. After I left a review here, the author was kind enough the email me and thank me. I was too shy to email back and thank him. But I would just like to say that I love this book and that I hope it returns to print. It should,it really should. Even after a couple of years, It is stil my favorite book, and I have read many books. The other people here have reiterated their wonder in the quality of this novel so I will not be redundent. But, let me say that I find the book a sort of sanctuary where I can return to after I grow weary or depressed. Not that I am obsessed or anything. I only read it about 6 times :0)

Great Book

I have read this book many times, but to me, it never gets old. It is my favorite book of all time, and that is a large statement. I think it is well written, action packed, sweet, and very comical. I would reccomend this book to anyone in search of a good novel. There is never a dull moment, but it has enough depth to make it great.

A book that has a hold of me and hasn't let go for years

This book is excellent. I've had it for years and still read it from time to time. It's just too bad that it's out of print. This book has magic, romance, sword fighting, war, trickery and deceit. The playing in politics, the greed of war and the fight between good and evil. This book has a pleasant variety of characters and creatures. Centaurs, pixies, satyrs, humans, and mice, along with many more. I can only hope you read it and are captured by it.

I Love It!

As a fantasy author, this is the type of book I would love to write- I have read it at least four or five times, and it never gets old. Mus is an endearing character, as well as the others- Miriam, Torscha, Willy, Frielle, Opal, everyone!- and it has all of the elements of a genuine *good story*. I only wish Mr. Kidd knew what a gem he wrote, and would write more like it!
