Dank, Gloria Rand
Entry updated 12 September 2022. Tagged: Author.
(1955- ) US author whose first novel, The Forest of App (1983), was a compact and intensely told Young Adult fantasy, in which the thinning of the old world is seen as fundamentally damaging to its survivors; the Galaxy Gang sequence of sf capers, written with her father, Milton Dank, is also designed for Young Adult readers, but lacks its predecessor's self-sufficient balance and grace.
