These really are fantastic anthologies. The full novels are great, but much more complicated and usually involving multiple plotlines and multiple characters often intricately linked. I keep the Liaden wiki open while reading them. On the other hand, the short stories and novelettes are able to focus on just one or a few (usually) minor characters that were briefly mentioned in the main storylines. They often provide touching backstories, "whatever happened to so and so" side adventures or delve into specific Liaden cultural practices. Reading these truly enrich the whole Liaden universe and are a must read for fans.
