	Raven's Reviews: Mercedes Lackey
		Lackey is one of those many writers who started out with a bang and seems to be going out with a whimper.
		Lackey is extremely prolific, and finding her good stuff in the midst of the less than good is not that easy.
		While Lackey tries to keep the reader from empathizing with the victims too much, she can't keep us from being ill at the amount and brutality of the violence she describes.

	Mercedes Lackey Phoenix and Ashes Reviewed by Katie Dean
		Mercedes Lackey is not the first author to have thought of retelling a classic fairytale, but the elements needed to turn this story into a compelling novel for adults are sadly lacking.
		Lackey is constantly at pains to tell the reader about the horror and terrible waste of this darker chapter in European history.
		Lackey is guaranteed success with such a popular fairytale that has already stood the test of time.

	Mercedes Lackey Novels
		Lackey has taken all the elements of the fairy tales I knew and loved as a child, added lots of new details and insights and woven it all into a wonderful, entertaining story.
		This latest effort from Mercedes Lackey is set in post-Victorian England, right around the turn of the century (last century, that is!) when England was still a force to be reckoned with in India.
		Lackey has explored the ideas about Elemental magic and Masters of Earth, Air, Fire and Water in some of her previous novels, including Fire Rose, and done a much better job of it.

	Mercedes Lackey, Joust
		Mercedes Lackey obviously spent a great deal of time creating this elaborate, self-contained world, but the story suffers a little because of it.
		Lackey has put together an amazing world, but it seemed to me as if she created the story to fit her setting, and not the setting to fit her story.
		If Mercedes Lackey has created this to be first in a new series, I would highly recommend reading the future sequels, because without all of the introductory information, the tale of Vetch and his dragons is intriguing.

		Born in 1950 in Chicago, Mercedes Lackey (née Ritchie) graduated from Purdue in 1972.
		Lackey is also a licensed bird rehabilitator, specializing in wild birds.
		It is evident that Lackey worked out every single aspect of having dragons, from their care (the Jouster's Compound is placed near the temple, so that the dragons can eat the raw sacrifices after the animals are butchered) to the difference between wild dragons and tamed ones.

	Mercedes Lackey's "Magic's Pawn" - Topic Powered by Groupee Community
		I like Mercedes Lackey's writing style and the general plot of the trilogy, which is its saving grace.
		It was the first trilogy in the Heralds of Valdemar series (although she went back and did some prequels as well, but that's not the point).
		Withen and several of the other supporting characters were a bit stereotypical, though I think Lackey added a good bit of three-dimensionality to them, and gave original insight into why such characters were the way they were.

	Crescent Blues Book Views \| Mercedes Lackey: The Serpent's Shadow
		Mercedes Lackey helped start the trend with The Fire Rose and continues it with The Serpent's Shadow, a variation on "Snow White." But Lackey takes the story of a maiden in peril helped by seven little men and changes it to a maiden in peril helped by -- seven Indian gods?
		I loved that instead of seven dwarves, Lackey invested seven animals -- a small Hanuman langur (monkey), a peacock, a Saker falcon, two mongooses, an Indian ringneck parrot and an Eurasian eagle/owl -- with the avatars of seven gods of the Indian pantheon.
		Again Lackey shows what a master writer at the top of her form can do.

		Mercedes Lackey's father was an avid science fiction reader, and it was through him that she was introduced to the genre.
		Lackey had long been involved in the somewhat nefarious world of science fiction conventions and gatherings, and began to write song lyrics to be performed at these events.
		Originally, she began to compose songs about scenes she was writing in order to strip down the writing to the barest minimum and get a handle on what she really wanted to say--a technique she continues to use.

		The story has many thrilling moments, and i must say that i was averse to putting it donwn once finished, but it also has a sensible balance of Vetch's everyday life that when read in detail can give a deep insight to his world.
		this was the frist book by Mercedes Lackey that I had read, but I have been convinced since then by other books that she is a great author and will be looking for more of her novels.

		My first review was a result of reading all Mercedes Lackey's books together and that is a mistake because she doesn't write the same book over and over.
		Mercedes Lackey has written a good book about London in the early 1900 and her heroine Dr. Maya meets all the usual characters expected child pickpockets, prostitutes, battered women, drunks, etc. But she never digs deep enough for us to feel that we really know this London of hers.
		But suddenly in the last few pages she becomes the Lackey we all know and love and the story just zips along.
