Who This Author Is

Alice Borchardt has enough depth here to be more than a raw catalog rollup. This page pulls together 7 catalog-linked books across 1995 to 2011, which makes it easier to separate the strongest starting points from the noisier editions. The clearest lane here leans toward Fantasy & Sci-Fi.

Best for readers who want imaginative settings, series momentum, and clearer jumping-in spots. If you want the easiest first click, start with THE DRAGON QUEEN (TALES OF GUINEVERE) and branch outward from there. UPB note: the strongest documented run here lands between 1995 to 2011; the most common copies on this page tend to come from Ballantine Books and Random House Publishing Group.
