Trudi Canavan, Cate Teirnan and Michelle Paver Yunalesca Send a noteboard - 13/09/2009 07:08:57 PM
all three are exellent. Canavan and Paver both put lots into planning their books. Paver does hands on reserch and makes her books all the better for them.

Trudi Canavan wrote: the black magician trilogy and the age of five trilogy. she's also wrote a prequel to TBM and is working on a sequel trilogy called the traitor spy trilogy.

Cate Teirnan wrote sweep (its called wicca in the UK) 15 books long, balefire 4 books; and is working on something else atm

Michelle Paver wrote the chronicals of ancient darkness which is 6 books.

i used to like Fiona McIntosh but i found her writing style fairly annoying at times. she has an odd obsesion with the letter Y and enjoys killing people then bringing them back. which gets old fast or is over done. the percheron trilogy realy pissed me off, thankfully the letter Y rarely appeared but its younger bro Z took over...

This board is severely lacking in discussion of female authors Larry - 12/09/2009 08:11:46 AM 1440 Views

I think what you mean is this board is lacking in discussion of lesser-known authors... Legolas - 12/09/2009 10:49:56 AM 923 Views
While part of that is true, part of it really deals with a thought when I glanced through the posts Larry - 12/09/2009 10:55:07 AM 967 Views
