TANITH
LEE


I saw her, hanging in the sky like a flake of the moon.  A woman, her face masked by a black shireen, her body by a black shift, but her white arms spread, and her white, white, bone-white hair blowing all around her like a flame composed of smoke.  Recognition was immediate.  It was my mother.

I shouted at her: "Your son, Ettook's warrior!  Do you like what you have made of me?  I might have been a prince in Eshkorek Arnor, or is Ezlann.  I might have been a king with a great army at my back, beautiful women to please me, and Power to make all men do as I wished.  Do you like what you have made?"

It was crystal clear to me, what he had meant for me, my father, Vazkor, what she had robbed me of.  And I drew from by belt my hunting knife and threw it at her heart.

"Tanith Lee is, in my opinion, fast becoming the best woman sf writer around... she is already one of the best fantasy writers....  Tanith Lee writes one helluva book and I can't wait to see more."
- Baryon

  • I try to maintain page numbers for audiobooks even though obviously there aren't any. I do this to keep track of pages read and I try to use the Kindle version page numbers for this.
  • Synopses marked with an asterisk (*) were generated by an AI. There aren't a lot since this is an iffy way to do it - AI seems to make stuff up.
  • When specific publication dates are unknown (ie prefixed with a "Cir"), I try to get the publication date that is closest to the specific printing that I can.
  • When listing chapters, I only list chapters relevant to the story. I will usually leave off Author Notes, Indices, Acknowledgements, etc unless they are relevant to the story or the book is non-fiction.
  • Page numbers on this site are for the end of the main story. I normally do not include appendices, extra material, and other miscellaneous stuff at the end of the book in the page count.
