Waking the Moon

The last Hand book I read was Winterlong, almost eight years ago. I liked it. Now I've finally read what's considered one of her best works, and loved it. It has its problems, but I found it to be a fast-paced, well-written, well-conceived fantasy/horror story with mythology, cults, and a whole lot of gore. I liked the fact that it had a female heroine and baddie. And there was a great lesbian supporting character that weaves in and out of the story as well. This book won the 1995 Otherwise Award and the 1996 Mythopoeic Award as well as being nominated for a few others.
