(1948-    ) US writer, almost all of whose work has been sf, albeit with a fantasy feel and often drawing on Mythology or Fairytale for underpinning. Apart from Tarzan, King of the Apes (1983) (see Tarzan), her fantasy output is almost entirely confined to movie ties: Return to Oz: A Novel * (1985) (see The Wizard of Oz), Ladyhawke * (1985) (see Ladyhawke [1985]), Santa Claus, the Movie: A Novel * (1985) and the juvenile Santa Claus, the Movie Storybook * (1985), and Willow * (1988) (see Willow [1988]). Vinge is a fine stylist; it is a pity that, in fantasy, she seems to have set her sights low. [JG]
