Writers/Authors << Back to Writers/Authors main page Celia S. Friedman
Friedman writes epic science fiction and fantasy novels which feature complex interweavings of plot and richly detailed settings. To date she has published eight novels, several short stories, and a sourcebook for White Wolf's Vampire: The Masquerade role-playing game. Originally a costume designer by trade, Friedman began her publishing career in 1986, and quit costuming in 1996 to write full-time. Though her books often center on traditional fantasy themes like magic, vampires, and telepathy, Friedman prides herself on providing the kind of detail and consistency that makes the imaginary seem real. She rejects traditional Fantasy's clearly-delineated dichotomy between good and evil, preferring to explore the uncertain and often uncomfortable grey zone between the two. Her work is often dark, and some of her most compelling characters are also her most disturbing. Friedman is currently working on a new fantasy series, the first volume of which was released in January 2007, entitled Feast of Souls. Details can be found on the author's homepage along with more personal information and previews of work-in-progress. Author photo by Anne Hutchins Other Websites:
