Tanith Lee wrote fantasy, science fiction and horror with a strong interest in transformation, desire, cruelty and the instability of identity. The Birthgrave begins with an amnesiac woman emerging into a violent secondary world and gradually uncovering her origins, while the Tales from the Flat Earth sequence uses an ornate mythic setting ruled by gods, demons and mortals. The Silver Metal Lover turns to science fiction through a young woman's relationship with an artificial human performer. Lee's prose can be lush, dark and dreamlike, but her plots often remain driven by difficult choices and changing identities. Her work fits dark fantasy, Gothic science fiction, mythic fantasy and speculative fiction centred on gender and transformation. Read more Less
