	Jim Mann's Reviews and Comments: The Poison Master by Liz Williams
		Liz Williams’s The Poison Master, like works by China Mieville, Jack Vance, and Gene Wolfe, inhabits that area between science fiction and fantasy (sometimes called science fantasy, though that term seems more fitting to the works of Leigh Brackett and Ray Bradbury).
		Alivet, while described as an apothecary, really is more of an alchemist (which in many ways is the “science” of this science fiction novel), and Williams weaves the underlying concepts of alchemy involving transformation into the fabric of her novel.
		I have two other books by her on my to-be-read shelf and hope to get to them sometime soon (though truth be told, my too-be-read shelf has hundreds of books on it; the only hope I have of making a major dent in it is early retirement and long life).

	Liz Williams' website
		Liz Williams, who debuted just last year with The Ghost Sister, now proves with her second book that she possesses enough talent and ambition to leap to the forefront of the next generation of SF writers.
		And Williams really follows the logic of her setup to the concluding massive paradigm shift.
		Liz Williams' first two books ("The Ghost Sister" and "Empire of Bones") were both excellent, but "The Poison Master" is clearly her best yet.

	Amazon.ca: Reviews for Poison Master: Books: Liz Williams (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Described in the biographical paragraph in the back of the book as the daughter of a stage musician and gothic novelist, it sounds like Liz Williams could be a character in one of her own books.
		In "The Poison Master" Liz Williams, author of two "social-science fiction" novels ("The Ghost Sister," "Empire of Bones"), now turns her cynical attention to borderline fantasy.
		Liz Williams has created a very innovating, cutting edge science fiction thriller that starts off at supersonic speed and turns into faster than light until the plot attains a satisfying if startling climax.

	SF REVIEWS.NET: Empire of Bones / Liz Williams
		Liz Williams' sophomore novel is an impressive bit of storytelling that shows considerable growth.
		In all, it's a lush story that shows Williams is well on the way to a healthy career in SF, with only a few kinks in her craft (yes, pacing can still be a problem) left to iron out.
		But though Williams' story occasionally slows down as she lays out her plot's intracacies, it is far more interesting this time than it was in The Ghost Sister, despite that novel's similar theme (in which people made contact with a lost and drastically changed colony).

	The SF Site: A Conversation With Liz Williams
		Liz Williams has spent most of her life in academic philosophy.
		Involved in the communal life of SF at many levels -- in writers' workshops, in the running of the fantasy magazine Scheherazade, in the wider Brighton SF scene (home to Interzone) -- Liz Williams is something of an emerging paragon of genre writing.
		Because my mother was a writer, I was brought up with the idea that this was what women naturally did, and so it seemed natural for me to emulate her.

		The book's various cultures and characters are fascinating, but what makes this story unusual is its historical breadth and its consideration of the spiritual and supernatural.
		Part alien adventure and part existential exploration, this top-notch tale establishes Williams (Empire of Bones) as an author to watch.
		She remains certain, however, that destroying the Night Lords will free her sister, and she determines that that is what she will do, whatever the truth of the tales she has been told.

		Rosie and I stumbled across Banner of Souls a novel by a British Science Fiction and Fantasy author Liz Williams.

		Today, she works in the field of educational consultancy, bringing students from Central Asia to study in Britain.
		This seems a bit of a change of pace from Liz Williams's well-received earlier novels, such as The Poison Master and Banner of Souls.
