These balmy summer months are still bringing us
a bumper crop of tasty web sites to be picked off the vine. Here's
four of the best of July's submissions to the SFcrowsnest search
engine ...
1. The works
of Sylvia Engdahl
Writer Sylvia Engdahl brings us her own official site. For those
unfamiliar with Sylvia's output, she's the author of Enchantress
from the Stars (Newbery honor; new hardcover edition, Walker, 2001)
and the Children of the Star trilogy (omnibus edition, Meisha Merlin,
2000). Nice looking site too.
