Jewish Fantasy writers.

World Sf alerts me to the article Why there is No Jewish Narnia. I have posted at World Sf but can't post at the original article. Apparently Jews don't write fantasy.

Don'cha just love utter rubbish? Simply off the top of my head:
Robert Silverberg; Esther Freisner; Peter Davison; Michael Burstein; Neil Gaiman; Marge Piercy (great grand-daughter of a Rabbi); Peter Beagle; Charlie Stross and Michael Chabon (by pure coincidence I have been reading Gentleman of the Road, set in the ninth century kingdom of the Kazars and, as he says in a post-script "Jews with Swords", all day today).

I am sure others will add more.
