Product Description
Product Description
Mary Gentle is one of Britain's most outstanding writers of imaginative fiction, able to move seamlessly from science fiction to fantasy within the same story. Following on from the success of ASH, 1610: A SUNDIAL IN A GRAVE and the omnibus volumes WHITE CROW and ORTHE, comes CARTOMANCY, the definitive collection of Mary Gentle's short fiction. CARTOMANCY includes the stories from SOLDIERS AND SCHOLARS as well as a number of tales previously unpublished in book form, all with new afterwords and topped and tailed with a specially revised version of her split story 'Cartomancy'.
About the Author
Mary Gentle is one of the world's most acclaimed writers of fantasy and science fiction; Ash, the largest single fantasy work ever - longer than The Lord of the Rings - combines the authentic details of Bernard Cornwell and the magical storytelling of Terry Goodkind; both hardback and trade paperback were Gollancz bestsellers. Mary has a number of academic degrees, including an MA in War Studies, and has hands-on experience of sword-fighting and armour, amongst many other useful talents. Mary lives in Stevenage, Hertfordshire.
