His introduction considers these out of continuity stories, but they supply much to his world. It should be noted that Petersen’s a generous host. Totally disparate material is themed via the technique of each tale being told by a patron of the June Alley Inn, with the best as selected by June herself clearing the teller’s bar slate. He’s constructed an entire inn complete with regular patrons, whom he identifies in the rear of the book, complete with brief biographies. The care and thought Petersen applies to the background detail of his work is apparent here firstly by a description of the objects used in his cover illustration, and then in the short linking sequences he supplies, thematically uniting the varied contributions of others. This isn’t restricted to readers of the main series, as there are now almost as many collections of material produced by other creators, with three volumes of Legends, as there are books of work by Petersen himself. Many have fallen for the visual charm of David Petersen’s Mouse Guard series, in which the protectors of a mouse society go about their business with tiny swords.
