I was sad to see this is the very last Chicks anthology I had not read. Several stories include characters that have appeared in all the anthologies while there are many stand alone stories as well. As usual the stories ran the gamut of b movie grade to classic fantasy to referencing myths and classic literature. As always, very enjoyable and hilarious.

This was a reread. I've always enjoyed these stories, and sometimes- like this last week- I just need funny stories about women kicking ass.
