The Seat of Magic (The Golden City, #2) by J. Kathleen Cheney
As excellent and intriguing as the first in the series. Danger and mystery in the streets and seas of Portugal.

The Sparrow in Hiding by J. Kathleen Cheney
A lovely, dreamy story, based around the aftermath of a classic fairy tale. Very enjoyable.

Shared Dreams: Three Stories from the world of… by J. Kathleen Cheney
A nice little set of stories - 2 of which are about events referenced briefly in Dreaming Death. I admit, I got a little pang from seeing *spoiler* again.
