Don Sakers, writing his “The Reference Library” column in the January/February 2019 issue of Analog Science Fiction and Fact, has reviewed Fantasy for the Throne. He says, in part, “A little gem. Or rather, here are 40 little gems by as many authors, all packaged in one sweet volume.… Most of us remember… the Andrew Lang Fairy Books.… In a way, Fantasy for the Throne is a modern, grown-up version of one of the Fairy Books. Definitely fun.”
