If Skeen getting hurled through an ancient gate into a perilous, uncanny world hooked you, you’ll love how Morgaine and Vanye battle to seal reality-warping Gates whose tech feels like magic. In Gate of Ivrel, the pair cross hostile clans and haunted ruins, with every jump through a Gate as fraught as Skeen’s leap—only here the mission is to shut those portals down before they wreck entire worlds.

You liked Skeen’s hard-bitten grit and how she muscles through alien customs to survive. In Jirel of Joiry, the red-haired warlady storms literal hellscapes—like in “Black God’s Kiss,” where she plunges into a nightmarish underworld to reclaim her power over Joiry. It’s the same no-nonsense ferocity and fearless delving into otherworlds that made Skeen so compelling.

If Skeen’s pragmatic, sometimes cutthroat choices and survival-first attitude spoke to you, meet Vlad Taltos. In Jhereg, the assassin—wisecracking alongside his dragon-like familiar, Loiosh—accepts an impossible contract that drags him through Dragaeran politics and criminal networks. It’s the same deliciously gray decision-making and razor-edged improvisation Skeen leans on after her leap.

If Skeen’s wry asides and canny, seat-of-the-pants problem-solving were part of the fun, Slippery Jim DiGriz delivers it in spades. The Stainless Steel Rat follows a master thief roped into hunting an even deadlier crook—Angelina—leading to audacious scams, disguises, and reversals. It’s that same sly, banter-rich vibe Skeen brings to tight spots in a new world.

Loved the go-go pace of Skeen’s scramble to survive and find her way after a sudden world-shift? In Nine Princes in Amber, amnesiac Corwin claws back his identity and schemes for a throne, sprinting through the infinite “Shadows” between worlds. The momentum, the swagger, and the quick pivots under pressure echo Skeen’s own relentless drive after her leap.
