?I bought your book, Last Legends of Earth, from a second-hand shop in Australia during one of the most difficult periods of my life. The escape the book provided and the direction it took my mind was one of many steps that could have taken a dramatically different turn. Thank you. Now that is all behind me, and I still remember how you brought my shattered mind and broken spirit back into wonder.
A.A. Attanasio
I'm sincerely moved - and glad to know you've restored yourself on a spirited path. Wonder, unchallengeable in its beauty and intimacy, escapes the haunting darkness sending us into the future. That my book opened into wonder for you during a dark passage is a supreme honor for a storyteller. Thank you for finding me and letting me know.

Hi! I'm new to Goodreads, but you're one of my favorite authors! The Dragon and the Unicorn is one of my favorite books ever and I can't wait to finish the series (I'm getting The Wolf and the Crown for Christmas). I was wondering what your favorite book is? Also, if there was one book I would recommend to you (you don't actually have to read it), it would be The Mask of the Sorcerer by Darrell Schweitzer.

I truly enjoyed your work as a teenager back in the 1990's. They were hugely influential to how I see the world: ecstatically and with intentional wonder. I remember feeling about ten years ago that you seemed to have fallen off the SF/F proverbial "map." Is there another "great work" in the offing, like the Radix books? Or have you moved on to other ambitions? Either way, a thousand thanks for your stellar work!
