Pseudonym of US author Joan Lesley Hamilton Cline (1942- ), whose first novel, The Lion and the Cross (1979) under her own name, is an historical fantasy about St Patrick. She is of sf interest for the Prehistoric-SF First Americans series beginning with The First Americans: Beyond the Sea of Ice (1987) and ending with The First Americans #11: Spirit Moon (2000); the tales are set in a fantasticated world where humans vie with mammoths, and mysterious treks into the utmost North, under the aegis of prescient shamans, are required to come to terms with primal forces. The books were Sharecropped. Wolves of the Dawn (1987) is a singleton. [JC]
