Katharine Kerr first became involved in the field of fantasy through role-playing games, feeling so intrigued that she began writing articles for gaming magazines and for some time was a contributing editor toDragonmagazine. This interest soon led her into the field of fantasy writing, with her first Deverry novel,Daggerspell, appearing in 1986. Since then, Kerr has written many more fantasy and science fiction novels. Her Deverry series has hitTheTimes(London) and the Australian bestseller lists.
Katharine Kerr is both a good writer and a thorough Celtic scholar. Indeed, her work is beginning to invite comparison with Katherine Kurtz's massive Deryni saga. <br>-- Chicago Sun-Times <br><br><br> From the Paperback edition.
