The Fionavar Tapestry Series & more by Guy Gavriel Kay ~ 16 MP3 AUDIOBOOK COLLECTION

Guy Gavriel Kay (born November 7, 1954) is a Canadian author of fantasy fiction. Many of his novels are set in fictional realms that resemble real places during real historical periods, such as Constantinople during the reign of Justinian I or Spain during the time of El Cid. Those works are published and marketed as historical fantasy, though the author himself has expressed a preference to shy away from genre categorization when possible. Kay has written over 10 novels and numerous shorter works. His works have been translated into 22 languages, and have sold over two million copies. Kay was born in Weyburn, Saskatchewan, and raised in Winnipeg, Manitoba, both in Canada. His background is Jewish. When Christopher Tolkien needed an assistant to edit his father J. R. R.

Kay moved to Oxford in 1974 to assist Tolkien in the editing
