A fantastic companion to the original trilogy, filled with favourite characters and some new additions. The variety in the stories is especially enjoyable, covering both pre- and post-Rising events, and told from an array of character perspectives. My favourite story was the novella "How Green This Land, How Blue This Sea", which was set in Australia. It was so refreshing to hear a story set outside of America and to read about my home country, and there were so many laugh out loud moments.
