Duck,

This is Legends II, the book this thread reviews:

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0345456440/qid=1101325801/sr=1-1/ref=sr_1_1/102-8871667-5841737?v=glance&s=books

As you'll note, it's a big book, because it contains all stories.

Legends I was also such a big book, but since that is no longer available in a hardcover version (though I have seen many secondhand), it has been split up into three smaller volumes, confusingly called I, II and III.

Here's no.1, containing tales of King, Silverberg, Card and Feist:

Here's no II, containing Martin, McCaffrey and Goodkind

No., III, containing the other contributors to the original Legends, those being Williams, Jordan, Pratchett and Le Guin:

OKAY so i actually have the actual LEGENDS II

not the "legends II" of the split of the hardback of legends I

but actually legends II.

and the legends III i referred to earlier was like you said fitz ... the third part of the first legends.

i am sorry i havent been living in the usa for a long time and i dont live in england. apparently from what i can find here there is only legends one and legends 2. when i did a search on the internet i found legends three (apparently as blah blah blah) but here where i live... in france... i can only get either legends one or legends two in the stores... no splits.. serious... and so now i know ursula le guin was part of the first one.

thanks for your patience!!!!

LOL Fitz! That one had me spitting coffee! :D

[Duckbutter]

i appreciate your patience and understanding fitz... you know where i am at legends I is exactly what it is... legends I. imagine that... not 3 books. but of course i dont live anymore in the usa or an english speaking country and dont have the means to see whats in the literature world lest i am rich enuf to pay for american vendors i search on french sites.

and when i look up legends I i can order it exactly as that.... ONE book.

however.. i APOLOGIZE for stressing you out and will be very sure to avoid doing so in the future. please feel free to just ignore an IDIOT like me.
