Diane Duane

Diane Duane is one of the very few authors who have achieved acclaim for media novelisations as well as original work. Not only that, but she is also one of the few authors who have managed to successfully write for adults and young adults. But her versatility doesn't end there: As well as novels (her Star Trek novels are considered to be the best in the business) and short stories, Diane is an accomplished writer of animated television series, comics and computer games.
