His Best,
This review is from: In Yana, the Touch of Undying (Paperback)
Mr. Shea does not put out lot of material, but what he does release is some of the best fantasy on the planet. If you haven't read "In Yana...", but like Vance or Zelazny or Hodgson or C. A. Smith or Lovecraft, then you REALLY want this book. It is an as yet unrecognized classic, since it didn't sell all that well due to lame cover art. The novel was only released once, so this is it if you can get it.

This is one of my all-time favorite Michael Shea books.,

This review is from: In Yana, the Touch of Undying (Paperback)
I'm a big fan of Michael Shea's Nifft books, but for me, this book beats 'em hands down. The mix of adventure and horror is very similar, but Shea really pulls out all the stops on this one. There are just too many bizarre and grotesquely fascinating things going on in this story to mention here. Just take my word for it, if you liked his other books, or enjoy reading Jack Vance, you will probably also love this book.

This review is from: In Yana, the Touch of Undying (Paperback)
Richley imagined and darkly humourous, In Yana is a wonderfully drawn world where humans are merely a small part of the food chain and a wizard is worth more for his skin then his knowledge. Highly recommended.
