Kort biografi
Kaaron Warren’s award-winning short fiction has appeared in “Year’s Best Horror and Fantasy”, ‘Fantasy Magazine’, “Paper Cities” and many other places in Australia, Europe and the US. She is an Australian currently based in Fiji. She is married with two children and they have a cat called "Fat Tuesday".

Her short story “A Positive” has been made into a short film called “Patience”, close to completion, and two of her stories were be part of a series of short, disturbing plays in February next year.

She is currently working on a novella about the goddess Ishtar, and a novel about the washerwoman in history. She has stories in Ellen Datlow’s Poe anthology and also her Haunted Legends anthology.

Her first novel, Slights, will be published by Angry Robot Books, followed by two more, “Mistification” and “Walking the Tree”.

Recensioner

Interesting world-building and culture; I'd be interested in exploring more of it. The protagonist's love and support for his wife with severe depression was a bit of comfort in a bleak and strange setting.

Towards the end of the story, it felt more like a series of vignettes due to the overuse of section dividers—sometimes between each paragraph. Writing was alright. Could use another pass from a proofreader.

Just a small taste of an extremely talented and renowned author. The entire tale is heavy with dread and death, but its characters are very much alive. It’s tragic and creepy, so incredibly written that I didn’t want to be in that headspace but was compelled to finish. I will be reading more of her stuff in the near future.

Somewhat interesting as an alternative viewpoint on Warren's *Walking the Tree*, but I found that it didn't seem to slot in well, nor did it work on its own.

Walking the Tree is less a traditional novel with an arc structure, than as a story about stories. The journey is one of discovering the stories that build cultures, and following then Beck to they're roots to discover how history becomes myth. It has the bones of a Bildungsroman, as well, but the growth is almost hidden by the choppy timeline and glacial pace.

There are also overtones of the hero's journey, especially in terms of facing fears as a tool of growth, but there is none of the action that usually entails. The only antagonists are fear, ignorance, and deception.

It's an interesting book, with fascinating world building, but in the end feels somehow half finished.
