Yolen is one of my favorite authors, and I find it hard not to gush while describing her work.
Jane Yolen produces more great poetry and fiction in "Here There Be Dragons," part of her short story series focusing on ghosts, angels, witches, dragons, and so forth.

 INTERVIEW WITH JANE YOLEN
I was tired from a long day's drive and it was hard to read street signs and house numbers in the dark, especially in the midst of a heavy thunderstorm.
The second copy arrived safely, but since by then Yolen was setting off to spend a year in Scotland, it was packed away and mislaid during her travels.
Yolen has written numerous poems and short stories on Arthurian legend, particularly the figure of Merlin.
