"Andre Norton, like all special writers, is more than just an author. She is a guide who leads us, the real human beings, to worlds and situations that we might expect to live, were we given extraordinary longevity.... Is it any wonder that millions upon millions of readers ... have chosen to go with her in her travels"" So states Roger Schlobin in his 1982 essay "Andre Norton: Humanity amid the Hardware" in The Feminine Eye, and over a decade later, his comments still ring true. Author of more than 150 books published over a sixty-year span, Norton has developed a large following that spans several generations and remains impressively loyal. The immutability of her appeal is evident in the list of Norton's books that are currently in print, which range from recent novels to reprints of her earliest works.
Norton is best known as a writer of science fiction and fantasy novels, and most of her work falls into these two categories.
