The Writing of Tanith Lee

One of my favourite writers of speculative fiction over the decades that I've been reading this stuff is Tanith Lee. (You can also check out her website at this page.) She has written so many novels and short stories over the years that I am staggered at times at the sheer continued quality of her writings.

So I have to say that I have just started reading her novel Mortal Suns, and that the book is...brilliant. The writing is so crisp, the story so beguiling, the protagonist and her supporting cast of characters so beautifully delineated and written.

It's been a while since I read a Tanith Lee novel, and I had forgotten how wonderful and superb her writing really is.
