I didn't like some of the stories of this anthology. It seems to me that Sword of Ice and Sun of Glory were much better Valdemar Anthologies, but perhaps I just feel that way because I have read them more often.

Although, those two do have a lot more tie-ins between the books (which are my favorite short stories to read since they make the most sense) rather than original fiction set in the world of Velgarth.

As with any other short story anthology, there were some stories in this that I enjoyed more than others, both in style and content. The title story was...something of a forehead slapper once I figured out where things were going (and it did take me a bit, since I'm not that familiar with Scooby Doo). A good portion of the stories were set outside of Valdemar proper, and some seemed only tangentially related to Velgarth at all.
