Actually, that one was by request. She didn't tell me what inspired the request, but it reminded me of Patricia C. Wrede's Enchanted Forest series. Oh, now there's a boxed set! It was like pulling teeth to find all four books when I was trying to read them, and now they're all conveniently boxed (http://www.amazon.com/dp/0152050523?tag=cdlauryl-20&camp=0&creative=0&linkCode=as1&creativeASIN=0152050523&adid=1768371E6FRPYH3XHC6T&). That and Yolen's Pit Dragon Trilogy (http://www.amazon.com/dp/0152057676?tag=cdlauryl-20&camp=0&creative=0&linkCode=as1&creativeASIN=0152057676&adid=0XWPKHMD988CZXBV7D6F&) - I have the earlier paperbacks, but now I want those boxed sets... :(
There's a book of short stories (http://www.amazon.com/dp/0152055088?tag=cdlauryl-20&camp=0&creative=0&linkCode=as1&creativeASIN=0152055088&adid=16A9BRVWRNH0KHZ1RF6C&) she's published; one of the shorts in that book is set in the Enchanted Forest and features a Frying Pan Of Doom which seems to belong to a young man who is horribly embarrassed about it and who wishes he had a better weapon to wield. I won't give away the ending, but it's hilarious.
Unfortunately, I didn't think to get her email address, so I can only hope she checks back and sees that it's there. Off the top of my head, I'm not sure who Anne Bishop is, I'm afraid.
