Wolf Wing

Tanith Lee says: "When I met Claidi-which was when I started to write about her-I took to her at once. I have to say, some characters I write seem great till I read them back later-and then I know I'd never truly want to meet them. I'd run a mile. But Claidi I like. I like her exasperation, and her sense of the ridiculous. I like her loyalty and honor, and her willingness to experience life to the full. "And I find her world rather like her, in fact. The way everything begins in such a closed space, gripped by meaningless ritual, surrounded by a poisoned waste-and then, as Claidi escapes and travels on, the world opens up like a colored umbrella. These books are places I like to go, like a fantastic holiday with special friends." Tanith Lee is an award-winning fantasy writer here and in the United Kingdom. She did not learn to read until she was almost eight years old-and at nine, she began writing. Since then, she has written fifteen children's books, forty-two adult novels, almost two hundred stories, four radio plays, and more. She has won the World Fantasy Award twice and the August Derleth Award, and has been nominated for the Nebula. She lives on the southeast coast of England with her husband, John Kaiine.
