Marie Brennan's deep love and knowledge of cultures around the world makes her eminently qualified to guide us through some of the lesser-known (and lesser thought-of) parts of human behavior. More than once I stopped reading, struck by one observation or another, and said, ""Wow, that would make a great story."" Highly recommended. -- Christopher Paolini" New Worlds is an essential worldbuilding reference for writers of speculative fiction.

More than once I stopped reading, struck by one observation or another, and said, Wow, that would make a great story. Highly recommended. -- Christopher Paolini Author InformationMarie Brennan is a former anthropologist and folklorist who shamelessly pillages her academic fields for inspiration. She recently misapplied her professors' hard work to The Night Parade of 100 Demons and the short novel Driftwood. She is the author of the Hugo Award-nominated Victorian adventure series The Memoirs of Lady Trent along with several other series, over sixty short stories, and the New Worlds series of worldbuilding guides; as half of M.A. Carrick, she has written The Mask of Mirrors, first in the epic Rook and Rose trilogy.
