Lillian Stewart Carl writes in multiple genres at multiple lengths. Her work often features paranormal/fantasy themes and always features plots based on mythology, history, and archaeology.

The latest of her seventeen (so far) novels is THE BLUE HACKLE, fifth in a cross-genre series that begins with THE SECRET PORTRAIT and continues on with THE MURDER HOLE, THE BURNING GLASS (“The tightly woven plot is certain to delight history fans with its dramatic collision of past and present.” Publisher’s Weekly) and THE CHARM STONE (“Carl’s well-crafted fourth Jean Fairbairn/Alasdair Cameron mystery takes Jean, a journalist for travel magazine Great Scot, and Alasdair, a former detective, from Edinburgh to historic Williamsburg, Va.” Publisher’s Weekly)

Of her twenty-five mystery, fantasy, and sf short stories, eleven are included in a collection titled ALONG THE RIM OF TIME, and thirteen are collected in THE MUSE AND OTHER STORIES OF HISTORY, MYSTERY, AND MYTH.

With John Helfers, Carl edited a retrospective on Lois McMaster Bujold’s science fiction work, THE VORKOSIGAN COMPANION (Baen Books, 2008), which was nominated for a Hugo award and is now available in paperback.

All of her novels and short stories are available in electronic form from www.fictionwise.com and other sites, including Amazon Kindle.
