	Lisle, Holly
		It's been a while since I checked in with Holly Lisle, but she seems to be doing well.
		Lisle interests the reader in the characters and gets him engrossed in the story, then resolves absolutely nothing in the end.
		Lisle mingles classic fantasy adventure with the feel of a science fiction novel and even mixes in a touch of horror.

	Sequential Tart: Holly Lisle -- Moving in Forward Motion (vol VIII/iss 7/July 2005)

		Lisle's worldbuilding skills are certainly thorough, and the map would be really neat if it had been printed properly.
		I find all of Holly Lisle's work to be spectacular, but this one, being the first book by her I'd read, is definitely my favourite.
		Lisle has also apparently done quite a bit of work in developing the every day things for this world: a daily clock with names for each hour; the naming conventions for days of the week, months, and years; as well as religious and governmental institutions.

	Scraps of Me » Holly Lisle (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Holly Lisle on Writing is a podcast that Holly started in March of 2006.
		Because I am a frequent reader of Holly’s blog, Pocket Full of Words, I totally understand the reason her podcasts have fallen to the wayside for the time being.
		Holly has a way of saying things that make you go “duh, that’s so simple I don’t know why I never figured it out.” And with nearly thirty published books to her credit the woman simply knows what the hell she’s talking about.

	THE ROMANCE READER reviews: Midnight Rain by Holly Lisle
		Holly Lisle has spent her career thus far writing in the fantasy genre.
		Lisle has crafted a page turning read, with the suspense thread really being the driving force.
		Lisle may have spent the bulk of her career on fantasy, but if this story is any indication she could have a bountiful career in the romantic suspense realm as well.

	GODS OLD AND DARK
		Hopes are dashed only to be renewed, and love drives even the most mundane of characters to acts of true heroism in Holly Lisle's third and final book in the World Gates series.
		Lisle creates worlds that are lush and vivid.
		Lisle's tactile descriptions and dialogue put me in mind of Connie Willis, Peter Beagle, or Marion Bradley Zimmer's works.

He and his wife just got their first ultrasound, and the baby is perfect, (considering my daughter-in-law is halfway through her second trimester, and thanks to Air Force snafus, this is the first doctor’s exam she’s been able to get, so news that everything is okay is a huge relief).

	Holly Lisle: Diplomacy of Wolves - an infinity plus review
		As first books in a series go, Holly Lisle's Diplomacy of Wolves (Book 1 of "The Secret Texts" series, just so you know) is not bad.
		It's not wonderful, either, but at least Lisle shows some facility with words, understands that she needs to get right down to the action and get the story moving.
		As the story unfolds, Kait finds herself on the run, and looking for an ancient artefact that may be the only way to save her family and herself.

		Holly Lisle posted the the introduction to Holly Lisle’s Create A Culture Clinic, the next volume in her Worldbuilding Course.
		Reading it really drove some things home for me. My wife often asks why I choose to write stories set in a fantasy world that I have to create, giving myself that much extra work to do (other people ask too, but she asks most often).
		But Holly’s introduction gave me another one by pointing out a big danger in writing about the world you live in.

		I think I detect the hand of Holly Lisle in the loving details of some of the more gruesome murders.
		A fun read, if a slightly rushed conclusion, and just a single sentence paving the way for a sequel, if needs be.
		A hectic roller-coaster adventure, but with a touch of nastiness (here called-for by the plot -- not as gratuitous as in Bones of the Past).
