Long before she became an acclaimed New York Times bestselling author, Robin Hobb began her writing career to great acclaim under the name Megan Lindholm. Though they derive from the same imagination, Hobb and Lindholm are separate, diverse identities. "They may use the same battered keyboard, the one with the letters worn off the buttons. But they are not the same author, but rather two writers with different styles, issues and choices of tale,” Hobb/Lindholm explains. The Inheritance brings together the diverse imagination of this award-winning writer for the first time, featuring classic and new short works under both names.
Booklist has given the book a starred review and proclaims it, "an engaging, entertaining introduction to both sides of the author’s work.”
