"Gertrude Barrows Bennett (September 18, 1884 – February 2, 1948) , known by the pseudonym Francis Stevens, was a pioneering American author of fantasy and science fiction. [3] Bennett wrote a number of fantasies between 1917 and 1923[4] and has been called "the woman who invented dark fantasy". Her most famous books include Claimed (which Augustus T. Swift, in a letter to The Argosy called "One of the strangest and most compelling science fantasy novels you will ever read") and the lost world novel The Citadel of Fear. "(from Wikipedia).
