Esther Friesner does some of the better light fantasy today (and her best
stuff has considerable meat on it).  It ranges from oriental style fantasy
[The Chronicles of the Twelve Kingdoms], spaced out alternate history
[Druid's Blood] to interesting contemporary situations [New York by
Knight, etc.].  I'm not a big fan of her Demon series, nor her other two
unconnected books [The Harlot's Ruse & The Silver Mountain].  What I'd
like to know is if she's ever going to continue her Chronicles of the
Twelve Kingdoms series.  It was the first stuff she published, it had an
interesting setting, and it wasn't left in a good stopping point.  Twelve
books were planned, but I haven't heard anything recently.
