Reception
[edit]Dave Langford reviewed Shade of the Tree for White Dwarf #98, and stated that "From Anthony we'd also expect a tidy ending, resolving problems with that inhuman fairness so often found in fairy tales [...] the Tree responsible for interminable forebodings and sinister hallucinations is converted to niceness by a spot of telepathic computer systems analysis."[1]
