<div>As the scholar and scribe of Tornor, Kerris has been in training for the past seventeen years. But it&rsquo;s not until his brother Kel of the Cheari culture teaches him the psychic art of patterning that the city of Elath comes under attack and Kerris must draw on these new talents to fight the dangers of psychic warfare. It is in these battles that he learns what a warrior&rsquo;s life is like and discovers what wasn&rsquo;t taught to him in his studies, perhaps the most important element of all: love.</div>

He goes in search of his former lover, the star captain Russell O&rsquo;Neill. What he finds is enough adventure and freedom to fill a lifetime.<BR /><BR /> With <I>A Different Light</I>, author Elizabeth A.

Since the novel&rsquo;s first publication in 1978, readers have loved its depth of prose, its clarity of emotion, and its thrilling adventure. It is no wonder Lynn is a multiple World Fantasy Award&ndash;winning writer whose work author George R. R. Martin called &ldquo;lyrical and literate, and a treat from the first page to the last.&rdquo;</div>

Watchtower

<div>Elizabeth A. Lynn stands as a groundbreaking author of fantasy and science fiction. Her stories weave richly drawn characters and complex scenes of daily life into the intricate tapestry of speculative fiction. But beyond her technical skill, Lynn has changed the landscape of fantasy writing as one of the first authors to incorporate themes of gender and gay relationships into her work. Importantly, these themes are not part of the fantastic story line but simply of the unremarkable, normal relationships around which the fantasy occurs. This collection of Lynn&rsquo;s early short stories serves as a wonderful introduction to her influential work. Soaring emotions, eloquent prose, and fully realized worlds are truly a joy to become lost within. That explains why the namesake short story &ldquo;The Woman Who Loved the Moon&rdquo; won Lynn one of her two World Fantasy Awards.<BR /><BR /> With <I>The Woman Who Loved the Moon and Other Stories</I>, readers will delight in an author whose work George R. R. Martin has described as &ldquo;the sort of fantasy we don&rsquo;t see enough of: lyrical and literate, and a treat from the first page to the last.&rdquo;</div>
