[QUOTE="Wofano Wotanto, post: 9340321, member: 7044704"] Ambitious. I'm pretty sure there are some I still haven't read myself and I've been a fan since 1976. She's got quite the body of work, which is part of why I'm confident there's something in it for almost everyone. I read Alliance Rising last year and thoroughly enjoyed it. It's a very polished example of her overall style of work and a great addition to the Union-Cyteen timeline with one of the best looks we've had yet at merchanter and stationer life. First time she's co-authored anything in ages AFAIK, and unsurprisingly she seems to work well with her "spousal unit" Fancher - who's done adaptations of Cherryh's work before. Anxiously awaiting the sequel, which should be where any direct crossover with Heavy Time/Hellburner happens if it's going to at all. This is true, although despite having a definite style and pet themes there is a fair bit of variation, particularly in her collab work and other shorter fiction. Her fantasy stuff seems more diverse in approach than her scifi, although I prefer the latter myself. The same can be said for her Merovingen Nights novel and collab series, although the premise is quite different otherwise. Those also have the merit of being quite short compared to later works, which might be appealing for someone who struggles with her longer books. She also did quite a bit of short collab work on Thieves' World and the Heroes In Hell series, all of which are pretty atypical of the rest of her stuff. Supposedly she wrote a Lois & Clark Superman novel, although I've never seen it in person - I think that might be her only licensed work. Always been curious about that one. [/QUOTE]
