The Complete Lythande is not a Thieves World novel. It is just as the title says the complete Lythande stories from Marion Zimmer Bradley's long career and I don't remember her ever writing in the Thieves World universe.
You are correct that these are all of the Lythande stories, I should have said 'related books' rather than novels.

Bradley originally created the character for the first Thieves World anthology; Lythande first appeared in the story "The Secret of the Blue Star" and appears in various stories throughout the series. I know part of "The complete Lythande" contents are from these anthologies, I don't know how much of it was published apart from TW.

I enjoyed those as well. Fair warning; they are no guarantee of enjoying Thieves' World. Robert Aspirin was only the editor of TW, he would write a short story/prologue that thematically set up the book but didn't write the stories themselves.

Thieve's World has a completely different feel then Phule or Myth Adventures.

Must have just missed it. It says currently unavailable. Ironically Lost World is on for .99, but I've apparently already bought that.

Shadow Show by various. A tribute to Ray Bradbury. $1.99
Quote:
In Shadow Show, 26 acclaimed writers have come together to pay tribute to the work of the one and only Ray Bradbury with never before published stories inspired by the master. The incomparable literary artist who has given us such timeless classics as Fahrenheit 451, The Martian Chronicles, The Illustrated Man, and Dandelion Wine, is being honored by some of the most notable names in the writing world—including Neil Gaiman, Joe Hill, Audrey Niffenegger, Margaret Atwood, Alice Hoffman, Robert McCammon, and more—with new short fiction that thrills, frightens, moves, and dazzles in the great Bradbury tradition. Edited by Sam Weller and Mort Castle, with an introduction by the man, Ray Bradbury himself, Shadow Show pays well-deserved homage to one of America’s greatest, most celebrated authors.

Dragons of Autumn Twilight By Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman. Book 1 of Dragonlance Chronicles. $1.99 at Amazon, Kobo and B&N. I've never read this series, but two of my siblings were big fans of this. If you buy from Amazon, you can add the Audible book for $3.49.

Amazon: https://smile.amazon.com/Dragons-Aut...9728924&sr=8-1
Kobo: https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/dra...xv94R9DMH4z0JA

This next author I've never read and am including only because of a positive blurb from the late Mike Resnick. Hard scifi.

Primordial Threat - M A Rothman Book 1. $.99 Amazon, Kobo and B&N.

Dragons of Autumn Twilight by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman is $1.99 at Amazon US.

I really enjoyed this when it was new. Not as much on a reread.

Quote:
This Dungeons & Dragons-inspired fantasy adventure is the first installment in the beloved Dragonlance Chronicles trilogy

Once merely creatures of legend, the dragons have returned to Krynn. But with their arrival comes the departure of the old gods—and all healing magic. As war threatens to engulf the land, a group of lifelong friends reunite for an adventure that will change their lives and shape their world forever . . .

When Tanis, Sturm, Caramon, Raistlin, Flint, and Tasslehoff see a woman use a blue crystal staff to heal a villager, they wonder if it's a sign the gods have not abandoned them after all. Fueled by this glimmer of hope, the Companions ban together to uncover the truth behind the gods' absence—though they aren't the only ones with an interest in the staff. The Seekers, a new religious order, wants the artifact for their own ends, believing it will help them replace the gods and overtake the continent of Ansalon. Now, the Companions must assume the unlikely roles of heroes if they hope to prevent the staff from falling into the hands of darkness.
