This is a Book Club thread for the short story of The Direct Approach, in The Best of the Realms, Book III anthology, by Elaine Cunningham. Please discuss herein:
One of the great things about Elaine and her writing is that she is not only able to tell an entertaining story with a great plot and interesting characters, but she has one of the best senses of humor I've seen in a writer, which is very much in evidence in this particular story.
The examples above were great, but I had to laugh when Liriel wondered where Toth kept his spell components.
