Sheri S. Tepper
"Sheri S. Tepper is one of the strongest, most lyrical and important voices in speculative
fiction -- a uniquely talented creator of truly wondrous things. Though compared often by
reviewers to Ursula K. Le Guin, C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien, and other giants in several literary
fields, she writes in a style that is distinctly her own, deftly combining fantastic invention with
insight and a social conscience to craft exhilarating novels, each more impressive that the
last" (quoted from her book THE FAMILY TREE , 1997)
What Urula K. LeGuin said about Tepper:
"Sheri S. Tepper takes the mental risks that are the
lifeblood of science fiction and all imaginative narrative."
What The Village Voice Literay Supplement said:
"Exhilararing science fiction...(Tepper's novels) are the kind that wrap
you in their embrace, that take over your life, that
make the world disappear."
What School Library Journal said:
"A master story-teller."
