An author's capacity to create novels of interest and excitement is challenged when crossing genres. Often, the author is incapable of adjusting their style to adapt to the rigors of a new condition. L.E. Modesitt, Jr., proves repeatedly his ability to produce stories within both the fantasy and science fiction genres. His bibliography is full of series, novels, and short fiction which can be classified as either fantasy or science fiction or both. Most well-known for his fantasy series Recluce, a world of magic and struggles between law and chaos, Modesitt can also build complex worlds of science fiction.
L.E. Modesitt, Jr., is an author of uncharacteristic flexibility and astounding depth.
