What I admire the mostis the craft: the details are chosen to convey just as much as you needto know, and no more. There's much I can learn from Shiner. Highlyrecommended.Table of Contents:IntroductionDuckCanto mcmlMerry Christmas from the KensingtonsApplicationFriedrich the Snow ManThe Gate of the Fallen AngelAuthor's Notes
