and, once I got over the retrofitting of Winter Rose to North America, Solstice Wood.
That's one that I own but haven't yet read, mostly because I read Winter Rose long enough ago that I'd rather like to reread it before I dive into Solstice Wood.
The House on Parchment Street and Stepping from the Shadows, on the other hand, are fabulous.
Haven't read (don't even own!) the first one, but I both own and have read the second, and I attempted to use it to convince my mother to read some McKillip. But she just can't be convinced that anything not concretely and wholly in this world is worth reading/watching/enjoying, regardless of the character development (which is what she usually professes to go by). It's doubly sad because she used to enjoy such things — for example, when she was about my age she really loved Dune.
Have you read Fool's Run? Reading sci-fi by her is also a rather odd experience.
