Standard Disclaimer:
This is a brief discussion of Delia Sherman and, of course, of some speculative-fiction books by Sherman.
This discussion and list does not necessarily include every book by Sherman: it includes only those books that I both know and like. Just as with the author list itself, omission of a particular item may mean I didn’t think highly enough of the omitted item, or it may simply mean that I have not yet sufficient familiarity with it. (In a very few cases, I have listed some books merely on the strength of my opinion of the author: all such books are clearly marked below, as throughout these lists, with a hash mark (#) before the title so you know what’s what.)
I don’t pretend that this discussion is a deep analysis. My intent is no more than to give you a rough idea of what kinds of tales Sherman tells, how those tales are usually told, and what makes them and Sherman worthy; in sum, to help you rank Delia Sherman (and the works by Sherman listed here) on your personal literary “to do” list.
Regrettably, I have not yet had an opportunity to write an essay on this author, but the “Other Resources” section below will lead you to some information about the “Notable Books” listed farther down this page.
Sherman has her own web site and a blog. A brief Sherman biography [archived copy] appears at the Interstitial Arts Foundation (of which foundation she is the president).
There are few or no over-arching Sherman resources beyond those, but there are seemingly countless one-off book reviews and on-line interviews. Rather than prove to you that I can use a search engine, I give you these two Google-search Sherman links: book reviews; and interviews.
I could find none.
