Maine-based writersSharon Lee and Steve Millerteamed up in the late 1980s to bring the world the story of Kinzel, an inept wizard with a love of cats, a thirst for justice, and a staff of true power.
In the decades since, until Steve's death in 2024, the Lee-and-Millerwriting team published over 100 works of fantastic fiction, the majority set in their genre-bendingLiaden Universe, demonstrating their shared philosophy that fiction ought to be funboth the reading and thewriting of it.
