| Publisher Description: A collection of nineteen splendid Tanith Lee tales hand-picked by the author. These extraordinary journeys into Lee's hugely popular fantasy worlds span thirty-one years of her extraordinary writing career and including four never-before-published stories: 'Clouden', 'Book Cover', 'Jade-Eye' and 'Questorday'. The tales in this anthology, saturated with magical color and light, have been compared to the writings of William Morris or Lord Dunsany. Sometimes disturbing, always beguiling, they will spirit readers into imaginary realms like no others. |
Contributor Bio(s): Lee, Tanith: - Tanith Lee is one of the most influential voices in contemporary fantasy writing. Her use of language is close to poetry and her work has inspired countless other writers. She is the author of a range of popular books in the science-fiction, fantasy and horror genres.Dart-Thornton, Cecilia: - "Cecilia Dart-Thornton is the author of numerous bestselling fantasy novels, notably the Bitterbynde Trilogy. The Washington Post reported that the first summer after Neilsen Booktrack launched in Australia, it showed Dart-Thornton's newly launched fantasy tome The Ill-Made Mute hitting the Herald's best-seller list, ranked next to mainstream authors and 'serious' fiction. Technology, in one swift blow, destroyed a decades-long publishers' bias against fantasy. It demonstrated that what people were really buying was simply not reflected in the old bestseller lists, based as they were on reports from a small panel of bookshops. The reality was, people were buying fantasy - in particular, they were buying The Ill-Made Mute. This debut novel and its two sequels in the 'Bitterbynde Trilogy' went on to win fans and accolades across the globe." |
