THE VERY BEST OF KATE ELLIOTT delivers tales with memorable worlds, populated with strong, amazing women
The January 1, 2015 issue of the Library Journal (subscription required) offers a review of The Very Best of Kate Elliott.
Elliott (Cold Steel; Labyrinth of Stars [sic]) has built a career out of creating memorable worlds and populating them with strong, amazing women (and the men who love them). While the longer form gives her a bigger canvas, Elliott proves here she can make those same fantastic worlds and characters in short form.
<snip>
Elliott excels at describing her brilliant worlds, employing a meticulous eye for the significant detail that illuminates a whole landscape. This could be an enjoyable addition for large sf and fantasy collections.
Read the rest of the review in the print edition of the Library Journal or through subscription on their site.
