Great Science-Fiction & Fantasy Works
Science-fiction & fantasy literature: a critical list with discussions.
Welcome to the Great Science-Fiction & Fantasy Works web site!
You have apparently come to this page from a link on a search engine or another site. If this is your first visit here, I much recommend that you take a few minutes to look over the introductory material accessible via the red “Introductory” navigation block just below the pictures. An understanding of the purposes and principles of organization of this site will, I hope and believe, much augment your experience here, for this page and in general. You can simply click this link to get at
the site front page, which, unsurprisingly, is the best place to start. Thank you for visiting.
Search, or just roll your cursor over the colored boxes farther below.

L. E. Modesitt
Standard Disclaimer:
This is a brief discussion of L. E. Modesitt and, of course, of some speculative-fiction books by Modesitt.
This discussion and list does not necessarily include every book by Modesitt: 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 Modesitt tells, how those tales are usually told, and what makes them and Modesitt worthy; in sum, to help you rank L. E. Modesitt (and the works by Modesitt listed here) on your personal literary “to do” list.
