This was an interesting book. I picked it up at the library while in search of a new fantasy author. I'd never heard of Lynn, but she had good recommendations from two of my favorite authors on the back of the book, so I thought I would give it a shot.I did enjoy her writing style - it was intere...
Elizabeth A. Lynn is a highly nuanced and subtle writer, and in my opinion doesn't receive the acclaim to which she is entitled. Arun is the second book in the Chronicles of Tornor series, and the best of the three. The others are also well worth reading, though, and read in order will provide pu...
The low star is entirely because of the ending. The book itself was good - it didn't have the focus of the first one, tended to meander around a bit, but I enjoyed all of the characters (even the one who started life as a villain) and didn't mind following them around in vaguely interconnected st...

His work is shown and sold across the known galaxy, but he is trapped on his home planet. In a fu...
No one has surpassed her chilling, literate prose: she is the mistress of quiet horror. This story was written in tribute to her work. It does not imitate her style—that would be both rude and impossible—but it does, I think, I hope, catch something of her mood. * * * Cape Cod girls they have...
