I believe this article needs to remain on Knowledge as it is a part of the Kerrion Empire (Kerrion Space) trilogy by Janet Morris. This series was originally published in the early 1980s and sold in the United States and numerous foreign countries. I believe it deserves to be included in Knowledge as

This is a genuinely notable sci-fi/fantasy author. Helped pioneer the shared world concept and later popularized it (Thieves World/Heroes in Hell). Isn't any novel she writes by definition 'notable'? Even if some might call it a lesser work in her body of work? Isn't there also a completeness

We do not exist to provide "evidence of Janet Morris's range of writing talent"; indeed, since all we are is a reference work, we by our very definition cannot do anything of the sort. This article should only remain, according to our purpose, if the book

For that matter I'm pretty sure these Kerrion Empire books are solidly reviewed in their day. I'm a newbie here, but if that were documented wouldn't that alone meet the book notability standards?
582:
Second, are you saying that you yourself noted this book enough to write an independent review of it, but are now saying the book isn't notable? Isn't that prima facea a contradiction?

So first, I'd appreciate it if you didn't yell at me. I have no other way to interpret four exclamation points after a neutral request for clarification and thoroughness on your part.

And the mere fact of reviews does not suffice (in fact, I believe I sold a review of this series at the time it came out; that doesn't make it notable). --

This is an earlier, lesser work by a fairly major author. It doesn't need a lengthy article, but I do think it warrants something.

OK, so her notability doesn't inherit. You haven't spoken to: 1. Completeness 2. Reviews meeting the criteria

I'm going to go post this for each of the books in the series suggested (incorrectly I'd say) for deletion.
