"Tanith Lee’s influence on contemporary fiction is an often-hidden strand of DNA that connects writers of fantasy, science fiction, romance, horror, and YA. N.K Jemisin, Martha Wells, Holly Black, C.S.E. Cooney, China Miéville, Jo Walton, Theodora Goss, and Terri Windling are just a few of the authors who cite Tanith Lee as deeply influential to their own work, and yet many readers are unfamiliar with Tanith’s fiction."
