| | William Sanders' Review of Donnerjack |
 | | Roger Zelazny, in the final stretches of his life, explicitly designated his friend and lover Jane Lindskold as the person he wanted to complete the book; and he talked with her a great deal about his vision, plot, and character and so on. | | | Jane added something else, too, something unique, though God knows she would have foregone it if she could. | | | It is indeed a measure of her dedication, and a high tribute to her skill, that most reviewers have taken the packaging at face value—or else have frankly admitted that they couldn't tell which parts of the book were written by whom. |

| | Jane Lindskold |
| | Lindskold’s books are filled with unique characters, interesting plots and vivid settings with a dose of modern issues sprinkled in the mixture. | | | Lindskold creates a vivid world for the realistic characters to find their way out of deadly predicaments. | | | Lindskold’s first book was Brother to Dragons, Companion to Owls. |

| | Jane Lindskold -- All Books |
| | Jane Lindskold, his partner and a fantasy author herself, completed it from some manuscript, a few notes, and conversations she'd had with him. | | | This is a magnificent science fiction epic about two virtual worlds that exist alongside each other, complete with separate gods and goddesses one set of which attempts to cross over and rule the other. | | | A supernova among science fiction luminaries--six-time Hugo and three-time Nebula Award-winning worldbuilder--the late Roger Zelazny's star still blazes brightly with this penultimate collaboration with acclaimed author Jane Lindskold; a visionary epic adventure of virtual reality and warring gods. |

| | Roger Zelazny and Jane Lindskold, Donnerjack |
| | But Jane in her 1995 biography of him, aptly called Roger Zelazny says 'He has also begun work on a three-book series tentatively titled Donnerjack, of Virtu, The Gods of Virtu, and Virtu, Virtu. | | | Though I cannot say for certain that Zelazny told her to do this, she was the executor of his estate, so I can make a reasonably good guess that he trusted her to do what was right. | | | There were certain sections in the second part of Donnerjack that I know weren't just Jane Lindskold, because Zelazny's style was so clearly stamped upon them. |

| | Jane Lindskold, Changer |
| | Lindskold is a master storyteller, and all of her considerable talent shines through in this epic tale. | | | To give you another idea of how good this book is, it actually overcame my near-universal loathing of books written in the present tense. | | | True, keeping track of who's who may be difficult at times, but Lindskold isn't shy about reminding you about who's who, and who -was- who. |

| | Review of WOLF'S HEAD, WOLF'S HEART by Jane Lindskold |
| | Lindskold does a good job rendering Queen Valora's ambassador, Baron Waln (Walnut) Endbrook sympathetically, despite his amoral character and occasionally evil behavior. | | | WOLF'S HEAD, WOLF'S HEART is a huge novel--the hardback edition is over 600 pages of small print--but the action doesn't really begin for the first couple of hundred pages. | | | Lindskold is a talented enough author to know that humanizing the antagonists can help strengthen the novel. |

| | The story is about middle-aged Mira Fenn (or Mira Bogatyr) and her quest to find out what happened to her enigmatic mother, who disappeared when Mira was a child. | | | Jane Lindskold's Child of a Rainless Year, borders on magical realist fantasy, but never quite crosses into the fairy-tale landscape that some writers of the genre reach. | | | But for someone who sees the magic potential of normal, everyday life, and looks to explore some of our own originary stories as we age, this is a worthwhile read. |
