Forgotten Ones: Drabbles of Myth and Legend

4 stars I received a copy from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. Drabble collections are a great way to squeeze a little reading into your day.

This is a great first resource for learning about Information Architecture and the information provided is wide enough to be applicable to many situations outside of official…
