http://www.famouscreativewomen.com/one/2027.htm

Extractions: I write fantasy because it's there. I have no other excuse for sitting down for several hours a day indulging my imagination. Daydreaming. Thinking up imaginary people, impossible places. Content, it dreams awake, and spins the fabric of tales. There is really nothing to be done with such imagery except to use it: in writing, in art. [Imagination] must be visited constantly, or else it begins to become restless and emit strange bellows at embarrassing moments; ignoring it only makes it grow larger and noisier. Those who fear the imagination condemn it: something childish, they say, something monsterish, misbegotten. Not all of us dream awake. But those of us who do have no choice.

Extractions: Next Page (Rand and Robyn Miller) Previous Page (Vonda McIntyre) Fool's Run A few readers recommended this author and this particular book to me pretty strongly in the mailbag. While this is certainly a unique book, very different than much of what I've read in the science fiction genre, it didn't really grab me like it did others. The story is set on a future Earth with an orbiting 'Alcatraz' in which is locked up a horrific mass murderer who is certifiable and totally psychotic (to the people that no one can really communicate with her). Through a variety of coincidences, an up-and-coming band comes for a publicity visit, but members of the band have their own agendas. Eventually, of course, all hell breaks loose. The characterization in this novel most closely resembles (to me) that of Brust, and the comparison is not favorable to McKillip. There are a lot of 'cool' characters here, with interesting mannerisms, the ability to complete each others' sentences, incredible (but taken completely for granted) talents, but the treatment of these characters is too thin for me to buy into it. I can handle Brust's conversations between Vlad and Loiosh since I have enjoyed watching that relationship carefully evolve over a long time. Not here. I couldn't find a reason to deeply care what happens. That's not to say it is bad. It is unique and interesting. There are several interesting and unpredictable plot twists, but for each of those twists, there are two unnecessary implicit requests for suspension of disbelief (I can handle 2-3 such instances in an unlikely prison breakout, but there were ten times that many). For example, I don't want to read that there is a hallway lined with virtually invincible, indestructible robots unless I get to see them in action. Instead, I get the pristine hallway in one scene, then utter destruction of the robot guards in the next with nary a scratch on the character responsible. I didn't buy it, and it is hard for me to put a finger on exactly why not, but the bottom line is that this was a good read but not compelling. I can see why some would really like it, but I found it rather average.

Extractions: McKillip, Patricia A(nne) Autorenportrait: McKillip, Patricia A(nne) geboren 1948 in einem Schaltjahr in Salem, Oregon, begann noch während ihres Studiums zu schreiben.. Die Autorin war zunächst Konzertpianistin, bevor sie sich ganz aufs Schreiben verlegte. McKillip zählt zu den profiliertesten Autorinnen des Genres. Sie lebt in Amerika. Ihre "Erdzauber"-Trilogie gehört zu den wenigen Klassikern der modernen Fantasy und war in den siebziger Jahren weltweit ein Bestseller. 1975 hat sie den World Fantasy Award für ihren wundervollen Roman "Die vergessenen Tiere von Eld" erhalten, wohl eine besondere Freude, denn dieser Preis wird in jenem Jahr zum ersten Mal verliehen. 1980 erhält sie den Locus Award für "Der Harfner im Wind" (Band 3 der Erdzauber-Trilogie). Es sind nicht nur Fantasy-Romane, die ihren Erfolg begründet haben: Sie beherrscht ebenso das Genre Science fiction. Zyklen: Einzelne Bücher: Erdzauber- Trilogie Um was gehts:

http://www.strangehorizons.com/2002/20020610/ombria_in_shadow.shtml

Extractions: T ragedy has always been with us, though it is something closer to our hearts in the past year. Whether a tragedy is shared or personal in nature, it forces us to deal with grief and to face the difficult task of moving forward with our lives. Thus tragedy becomes not just a terrible event but a struggle, in which one can find moments of human transcendence. This nexus point of shadow and light tragedy and transcendence is the centerpiece of Patricia McKillip's brilliant new fantasy novel, Ombria in Shadow In Ombria in Shadow McKillip interweaves the finer aspects of the fairy tale and the Gothic to evoke a sense of catharsis. Fairy tale pacing and characters are balanced carefully against the darker aspects of the Gothic setting to produce wonder, fear, and in the end renewed hope that the world not only can, but will, be a better place tomorrow. McKillip's rich mix of deft characterization, adept world building, and artistic prose forms a magnificent tapestry. Ombria is a city in decline ruled by the House of Greve and its current Prince, Royce Greve. Once a great and powerful trading center, its fortunes have fallen, and along with them, the hopes of its people. Around every corner is an abandoned inn, storefront or home; in every building is a sign of decay and impending collapse. Pirates have driven the port almost out of business. Its people are sinking into despondency. And the members of the House of Greve and the other nobles of the city are ill-prepared for the death of Royce. The heir, Kyel, is a child, and the woman who will be his Regent is an unnaturally old and power hungry woman of the House of Greve, Domina Pearl.

Extractions: The Lord of the Rings Beowulf to Babbitt as rigorously as my imagination had been shaped and bounded by Catholicism, wanted something more. Something on the other side of boundaries, of tradition. Very simply, I was lonely in this ancient, masculine fellowship. I wanted the company of someone like me. . . . And so I closed the book on the Fellowship and went down a road less traveled. Rereading The Lord of the Rings after a quarter of a century or more was most certainly a labor of love. No matter its flaws, it reminded me time and again, even after all those years, of what marvels and terrors, what mysteries, desolations, and glories beyond hope lured that seventeen-year-old reader onward for page after page in the middle of the night. The simplest language still resonates down the years: "I will take the Ring," he said, "though I do not know the way." The more complex cadences echo as from the oldest myths, the beginnings of human language:

Extractions: This discussion and list does not necessarily include every book by McKillip; it includes those books that I both know and like. Just as with the author list itself, omission of a particular item may mean I didn't think highly enough of the omitted item, or it may simply mean that I have not yet sufficient familiarity with it. (In a very few cases, I have listed some books merely on the strength of my opinion of the author: all such books are clearly marked below, as throughout these lists, with a hash mark ( ) before the title so you know what's what.) I don't pretend that this discussion is a deep analysis. My intent is no more than to give you a rough idea of what kinds of tales McKillip tells, how those tales are usually told, and what makes them and McKillip worthy; in sum, to help you rank McKillip (and the works by McKillip listed here) on your personal literary "to do" list.
