I have THE SILVER METAL LOVER by Lee, which I consider the best SF love story........... ;-} However, I tried to order DON'T BITE THE SUN and DRINKING SAPPHIRE WINE a day or two ago, and my friendly local bookstore has never heard of it! Help! Is it out of print? > Lee also has a gothic SF novel - "Lycanthia". It is a sequel > to the farcical "Anna Medea" in her latest anthology, "The Gorgon". Are you sure? I read LYCANTHIA a while back, and I just bought THE GORGON. I don't remember any similarities between the novel and any of the short stories. Actually, a lot of her work is in the style of LYCANTHIA. As I think I've pointed out before, she is primarily a sword/sorcery writer. Try her first novel, BIRTHGRAVE. -- AMBAR {the known universe}!ihnp4!ihlpg!jeand "You shouldn't let people drive you crazy when you know it's within walking distance."
