Tanith By Choice: The Best of Tanith Lee

by Tanith Lee

Overview

Tanith Lee is one of the finest writers to ever grace the field of speculative fiction. The author of around 100 novels and several hundred short stories, she wrote two episodes of the iconic TV series Blake's 7, was the first woman to win the British Fantasy Award - which she followed with two World Fantasy Awards, shortlistings for all manner of accolades including Nebula and BSFA Awards - and in 2013 she received a 'Lifetime Achievement Award' from the organisers of World Fantasycon...

Tanith has left an incredible legacy. I would never dream of attempting to compile a 'Best of' collection, so instead I've let others do so for me.

TANITH BY CHOICE features many of her finest stories, as chosen by those who knew her.
