	Lynn Abbey
		Author Lynn Abbey is best known for her role, along with ex-husband Robert Asprin, in creating, editing, and contributing to the Thieves World anthologies.
		Lynn Abbey was born in Peekskill, the Hudson River Valley of New York, a distinction which she shares with Mel Gibson and Paul Reubens.
		Abbey scrapped her plans to acquire a Ph.D. in the field when a school advisor apprised her of the limited career options then available to Ph.D. in her field.

	SF REVIEWS.NET: Out of Time / Lynn Abbey
		And though it might seem a disservice to Abbey to suggest that after 20-odd years of trying she's finally gotten it right, it might be more diplomatic to suggest that maybe she's finally found the right type of story to let her talents bloom.
		But Abbey's biggest coup here is the character of Emma herself, the most real heroine Abbey has ever created, and one whom it is easy to surmise may be something of an alter-ego.
		Emma is Abbey's triumph (particularly compared to such gratingly loathsome characters as Jerlayne or Berika of The Wooden Sword), and I hope to see this kind of heart in future Abbey stories now that she's getting this good at it.

	Interview: Lynn Abbey
		Be sure to visit The Worlds of Lynn Abbey (http://www.lynnabbey.com/) to keep up on her latest work in both her standalone novels and the Thieves' World books.
		Lynn: My parents might say that I started telling stories when I learned to talk and decided that I'd become a writer the day I recognized a typewriter, but my professional career began in early 1977 when I was recuperating from an auto accident.
		Lynn: It was a lot of fun and it was more than three authors, it was three authors and several hundred characters.

	SF REVIEWS.NET: The Wooden Sword / Lynn Abbey
		Abbey wants us to sympathize with her by ruthlessly depicting all her beatings and implied rapes by her vile husband; but when Dart retrieves the titular weapon from a magical tree and finally does the creep in, she's suddenly afraid of him.
		But Berika actually grows more loathsome; Abbey herself even describes her as a "snarling girl," leaving me to wonder why the hell she thought any reader would find Berika a sympathetic fantasy heroine in the first place.
		At times like these it is hard to tell whether or not this is a case of of Berika's being an idiotic character, or Abbey simply having her head up her ass as a writer.

	Science Fiction Book Reviews
		But Thieves' World is a "first": Its creators, writer/editors Lynn Abbey and Robert Asprin, fashioned the first fantasy world deliberately designed for other authors to write about.
		After an absence of 13 years, Thieves' World returned in 2002 under the guidance of co-creator Lynn Abbey, who relaunched the series with her novel Sanctuary and the anthology Turning Points.
		Lynn Abbey's "Introduction," intended to orient readers new to Thieves' World, overburdens them with the names and nicknames of just about every cult, gang, ethnicity and empire ever to pass through Sanctuary.

	The SF Site Featured Review: Thieves' World: Turning Points
		Once she had set the stage, Abbey turned the city over, once again, to the authors who had made such a mess of it once before.
		Although most of the Dyareelans were ousted from Sanctuary prior to the opening of Abbey's novel, some still remain and Selina Rosen's warrior woman Kadasah has set her sights on their extermination in "Ritual Evolution." Perhaps more than any other story, Rosen's deals with Sanctuary-wide politics instead of merely focusing on the individual.
		Although Abbey does not feature any of the characters from the original series, she does demonstrate that some of their relics still survive in Sanctuary to either do harm or good, depending on who finds them and how they choose to make use of them.

		The effect is that you get many different viewpoints for the same story--some light, some dark--and it makes the overall story seem more well-rounded, yet cohesive at the same time.
		This is a tribute to the talents of the many writers involved with the project, and to the editors, Abbey and Asprin [fine writers in their own right].
		As for the overall story, Thieves World is set on a terrestrial planet, with most of the action taking place in and arround the city of Sanctuary.

	Sanctuary
		Sanctuary is a city that has been abandoned by empires, wizards, and gods; if a type of crime exists, it has probably been committed in Sanctuary several dozen times.
		As it turns out, it's also a book; Lynn Abbey picks up many years after the Thieves' World anthology series ended over ten years ago (my god, has it been that long?!).
		I might have a little more regret that most of the characters I knew are long gone, but Abbey did a creditable job in drawing me back into Sanctuary.

		Along the way to carving their home from the wild mists, Jerlayne will also start a long chain of questions that will lead her through perils and enlightenment from which only her strength, her love, and her instincts will save her.
		Jerlayne is by far Abbey's best novel since Daughter of the Bright Moon, and if you’re looking for a leisurely read with just enough mystery to keep the pages turning, I recommend this one.

	A Notable Guide to Thieves' World
		Edited by Robert Lynn Asprin, the first set of Thieves' World books appeared in 1978 and gave us a then-unique anthology of stories - unique by the fact that the authors shared their characters with each other.
		They hooked me in and I have spent many years since trying to collect everything I could find based on the books, including comics, a roleplaying game system and even a board game.
		Fans of this series should watch out for the new Thieves' World anthologies, being edited by Lynn Abbey.

		From archive (archive) Subject: Author Lists: Robert Asprin & Lynn Abbey From: JWenn.ESAE@XEROX.COM Date: 14 Dec 89 08:30:22 GMT With the last "Thieves World" anthology just published (it must be the conclusion, it says so on the cover), I thought I'ld do Robert Asprin & Lynn Abbey.
		Personally I found the first few Thieves World books interesting, but I lost interest after #4.
		And I rather enjoyed Lynn Abbey's "Daughter of the Bright Moon" novel.
