19. The Dragon Done It - edited by Eric Flint and Mike Resnick.

Collection of short stories. These stories are very noir crime/mystery stories...set in fantasy land. Ranging from a man that folds himself into his filing cabinet to reach the Search Engine, to several Sherlock Holmes stories, to Hansel and Gretel trying to one-up the witch again. These were a very good read. Filled with classy dames and down-and-out PI's, there was a good blend of fantasy worlds and well-known characters in with the mystery, and it's always fun trying to guess whodunnit. Only disappointment was there weren't enough dragons, but there rarely are, so I won't hold it against the book.
