Editorial Reviews

Review

Unusually literate, intelligent, and respectfully aware of the epic tradition--firmly grounded in reality, tradition, and myth. -- Borderland, 1988

What the author has to say is well worth reading. -- Different Worlds, 1988

From the Author

The Winter King has always been, to me, "Son of Sabazel". Inspiration for it ranged from tales of the Mongol Horde to the legend of El Cid, well spiced with the courage, honor, sorcery, and treachery of Greek history and myth.

More About the Author

A child of the American heartland, Lillian Stewart Carl graduated from grade school in Missouri, from high school in Ohio, and from college in Texas. She should have a Bachelor of Arts in History, but inadvertently found herself with a Bachelor of Science in Education. Either way, she's now pursuing one of the few jobs that can be done with a background in history and English--writing fiction that invokes a legendary past, even in contemporary settings.

It's no surprise that Lillian and her long-suffering husband have wandered countless British single-track roads, from Orkney to Dover and back again. Also, just for variety, she has excavated the Biblical city of Gezer in Israel, worn a pink and mauve sari to a wedding in Hyderabad, India, searched for Middle Earth in New Zealand, and sung "Waltzing Matilda" in a haunted cottage in the Australian outback.

Being generally a mild-mannered individual, Lillian has yet to throw anyone across the room with her tai chi skills. Nor has she stabbed anyone with her knitting needles or slammed anyone's fingers except her own in the cover of her piano keyboard.
