Review |
"Designed for students, reader's advisors, fantasy fans, and other researchers, this guide is a launching point for researching popular fantasy authors (and their work) and finding new ones. It includes entries for approximately 100 leading contemporary and popular authors." "Each entry includes: a brief biographical sketch, including a quote from the author and his or her major awards; a list of the author's major works; and research sources-biographies, interviews, criticism, research guides, a wealth of Web sites, and blogs. In addition, you'll find more than 20 author "read-alike" lists."--BOOK JACKET. |
