Mamma mia che libro brutto e inutile. Se le nuove leve del fantasy sono queste, signori è finito il fantasy.
Da non comprare . (

Disambiguation notice

This book is the 2nd Volume of the first book of the Legends series. In the US it was split into 3 books when it was published in paperback.
Legends II is a separate book and the second book in the series. It was published in 2004. The difference between 2 and II is that 2 starts with "Short Novels", II starts with "NEW Short Novels". Volume 2 of the first book has a publication date before 2004. It also has TOR as a publisher.
In the UK it looks like Amazon has the paperback version of II listed as 2. Amazon in the US has both 2 & II intermixed and is incorrect.

It is also not the same as the 2nd part of the 2way UK split of legends 1. Be very careful when combining!
