Book description
Two Men in One Body - Two Epochs in Conflict He woke up to find himself
in weird surroundings, guarded by two strangers, one an old, old man,
the other a slim sexless figure hidden completely under long blue veils.
These two called him Adric, a name he instinctively responded to, even
though he knew he was Mike Kenscott, radio engineer in a government
laboratory. His rich crimson clothing was unfamiliar and he was shocked
by the landscape he saw through the window - mountains bathed in a
pinkish light whose source was not one but two brilliant suns. Panic
seized him then. Who were these people? What world was he in? And, most
important, whom had he become? Marion Zimmer Bradley (1930 - 1999)
Marion Zimmer was born on a farm in Albany, New York, in 1930, and
married Robert Alden Bradley in 1949. She received a B. A. from Hardin
Simmons University, Texas, and did post-graduate work at the University
of California, Berkeley, during which time she helped found the Society
for Creative Anachronism. She sold her first story in 1952 and was a
writer of note for over four decades. Bradley is best known for two
signature series: the 'Darkover' science fantasy series and her
Arthurian masterpiece, The Mists of Avalon and its sequels. She also
edited anthologies for 14 years and published Marion Zimmer Bradley's
Fantasy Magazine, which ran for 50 quarterly issues between 1988 and the
end of 2000. Marion Zimmer Bradley died in Berkeley, California, on
September 25, 1999, four days after suffering a major heart attack.
