In between lays the sort of resume that used to be de-rigueur for writers. She has never actually wrestled alligators, but she did at one point very briefly tie bows on bags of potpourri for a living. She has also washed dishes and ironed clothes for a living. Worst of all she was, for a long time, a multilingual scientific translator.
At some point, though, she got tired of making an honest living and started writing. She has over 30 published novels, in science fiction, fantasy, mystery, historical mystery, historical fantasy and historical biography. Her short stories have been published in Analog, Asimov's, Amazing Stories, Weird Tales, and a number of anthologies from DAW and Baen. Her space-opera novel Darkship Thieves was the 2011 Prometheus Award Winner, and the third novel in the series, A Few Good Men, was a finalist for the honor. She also won the Dragon Award for Uncharted (with Kevin J. Anderson.)

Barbarella: Woman Untamed presents an intriguing concept but ultimately falls short of expectations. While the artwork is vibrant and visually appealing, the storyline feels disjointed and occasionally confusing. The characters lack depth, making it difficult to connect with their motivations or struggles. It's evident that the creators aimed for a bold and empowering narrative, but it sometimes comes off as superficial.
The pacing also feels uneven, leaving certain plot points underdeveloped while dragging out others. Fans of the original Barbarella may appreciate the homage, but for new readers, it might be a challenge to fully engage with the material. Overall, while there's potential in this volume, it lacks the execution to make it a memorable experience.
