Corbenic is my favourite of the books I’ve read by her. I will never be as good a writer as Catherine Fisher, mainly because her work is so psychologically complex and her characters so layered that I fear I’d lose myself if I tried to write in so deep a way, but she’s one of the writers I look to for guidance.
