Themes within fantasy
Given Hambly's diverse portfolio, there are only a few themes that run throughout all of her novels. She has a penchant for unusual characters within the fantasy genre, [ [http://www.strangehorizons.com/2000/20000911/Article_Hambly_Pellegrino.shtml Review of female characters in Barbara Hambly novels] ] such as the menopausal witch and reluctant scholar-lord in the Winterlands trilogy, or philologist secret service agent in the vampire novels. Her writing is filled with rich descriptions and actors whose actions bear consequences for both their lives and relationships, suffusing her series with a brooding sense of melancholy and regret; [http://www.andromedaspaceways.com/inter_0002.htm Interview with Andromeda Spaceways] ] Hambly's characters experience the pain of frustrated aspirations to a degree that is uncommon in most fantasy novels.Clute, J. & Grant, J. (1999). "The Encyclopedia of Fantasy". Orbit: London (UK)] Though using many standard clichés and plot devices of the fantasy genre, her works depart from the norm through an exploration of the ethical implications of the consequences of these devices, and what their impact is for the characters, were they real people. In avoiding the "...easy consolatory self-identification of genre fantasy" (p. 449) and refusing to let her work be guided more explicitly by conventions and the desires of her audience, Hambly may have missed out on the remunerative success and acclaim that she is due. Hambly heavily researches her settings, either in person or through books, frequently drawing upon her degree in medieval history for background and depth.
