If you've read the full series (which I assume you have if you're looking at this book), there will be a lot of repetition in this book. It is definitely a book for the fans because it's a lot of extra content that can already be read at the end of the books in the series, however, it's great to have all the short stories in one place! And, if you're like me, your copies of the series don't all have the extra content, so it's great to have a place to access those stories. Whalen also includes some recipes and history about how she wrote the series and what inspired her.

There are a couple of new stories as well, but I wouldn't recommend buying the book just to read them. This is a great book to have and a fun read, but it's definitely more like a companion guide than a book in its own right. 

However, this is one of my favourite series, so I'm pretty thrilled with whatever little morsels I can get to add to my Queen's Thief series.
