Bøger af Tanith Lee

Tanith Lee was one of the most influential and admired writers of the 20th Century. Since her first novel in 1971, right up to her death in 2015, her works resonated with generations of readers. She left behind an incredible legacy: a body of work which embraces every facet of the fantastic. From vampires to ghosts, fairies to robots, science fiction to fantasy and horror and back again: no-one could write like Tanith Lee!Telos Publishing is proud to present this special collection of 26 key works from Tanith's vast short story archive. Personally selected by her husband, the artist John Kaiine, these stories will touch your heart. They will caress your soul before ripping it from your body … they will change the way you look at the world.'A beautiful writer … spot-on, with moments of wry humour amid her smooth, elegant prose; she gives the impression of days-of-yore and a faraway world, and tackles her creation's weird eroticisms, without ever being tempted into going over the top.' The Guardian'Quite astonishing: unrelentingly skilful, unputdownable … Accept no substitutes.' John Clute'One of the most intelligent and powerful writers in fantasy.' Publishers Weekly

"Tanith's work is lush and rich with beauty, darkness, and sensuality. More than almost anyone else whom I have ever read, Tanith's work sounds like it was meant to be read aloud, perhaps while huddled around a fire in the dark forest or in the quiet and still air within an ancient temple."Jeremy Brett, (Cushing Memorial Library & Archives, Texas A&M University) Tanith Lee wrote fifteen stories for the acclaimed US genre magazine 'Realms of Fantasy', which ran from 1994 to 2009 and was founded and edited by her close friend, Shawna McCarthy. Venus Burning: Realms collects all these stories in one volume for the first time, some of which only ever appeared in the magazine and will therefore be new to some of Tanith's fans.The stories in this collection are among her best work, in which Tanith takes myth and fairy tale tropes and turns them on their heads. You might find fantasy swordsmen (Woman in Scarlet), vampires (Israbel), werewolves (Moonblind), dragons (The Children of his Old Age), ghostly dolls (Doll Skulls) and tales reminiscent of the Arabian Nights (I Bring You Forever), but these are nothing like stories of those genres you've read before. Lush and lyrical, deep and literary, Tanith Lee created fresh poignant tales from familiar archetypes. This book also includes three previously uncollected stories from her Flat Earth mythos."We published fifteen of Tanith Lee's brilliant works. All of those wonderful, mystical, gorgeous, glorious stories are in this volume, and I'm so glad that Immanion Press is sharing them with new (and old) readers."Shawna McCarthy - founder and editor of 'Realms of Fantasy'

Nobody knew where it had come from, or what it wanted. But Tanaquil, Jaive's completely unmagical daughter, understood it at once. She knew why the unicorn was there: it had come for her; it needed her. Tanaquil was amazed because she was the girl with no talent for magic. What could she do for a unicorn?

Raised in a swamp by a mad witch, poor Louisa grew up with one goal in mind: to marry a wealthy man, then inherit his lands and money by whatever means it takes. And Louisa may well succeed, for she is a stunning beauty with the manners of an angel.
