My very first Tanith Lee story has now been read. :) It was a short
story (my recreational reading time is extremely limited) hosted by the
unSFnal _Nature_ website. [1] The unSFnal nature of the story, so to
speak, intrigued me enough to pick that story first.

*spoiler space*


"Dead Yellow" dovetails with a recent rasw thread about the lack of
green stars. But yellow's the dead color in the Lee story. Lee's story
paints horrific landscapes along the way and ends with a sort of hard
science fiction gestalt.

Note.
