/lit/ - Literature

My favorite female author is Diane Duane, most famous for her work on the Young Wizards series. The books are targeted at the young adult demographic, but they're very enjoyable, regardless of age. Starting in the '80's, the series has a long tenure with wonderful blending of relevant, generally accurate scientific information, a grand, epic adventure in each book, and a unique approach to "magic" that is less "wave the stick and use badly mangled Latin" and more "Going through the proper channels of logic, science, and reason by way of speech and geometry to tell the universe what to do."

Aside from that, she has an extensive bibliography, has penned many official Star Trek books and a few Doctor Who books, as well as dozens of other novels. I would check her out; she's great.

One of my favorite young adult series I never see mentioned on /lit/ is the Young Wizards series by Diane Duanne.

I kind of doubt some of the more serendipitous captcha I see people report.
