Works
Charles Gramlich wrote:
- Teot's War creates a fully realized world that combines elements of Frank Herbert's Dune, Glen Cook's Dread Empire series, the Hyborian World of Robert E. Howard, and the real world of Earth's Bedouin tribes. It contains a delightful and realistic created language. But the best element is the superb writing.[3]
Reception
Fritz Leiber reviewed Teot's War in Locus magazine.[4] Teot's War was reviewed in Science Fiction & Fantasy Book Review Annual (1988) by Larry D. Woods who said it offered significant explorations of themes of heroism and deception.[5] A reviewer of Teot's War in Pandora magazine commended Gladney for her well-rounded characters and setting.[1] Susanna Sturgis reviewed Teot's War in the journal Feminist Bookstore News.[6]
Blood Storm was reviewed by Tom Whitmore in Locus.[7]
Author Charles Gramlich wrote of Gladney that she is "a bit of a forgotten writer" having not published a new book since the 1980s, though one with a fan base, he says "few writers had such an auspicious start to their careers" and she has influenced his own writing.[3]
