Autorenporträt

Erin Beaty was born and raised in Indianapolis, Indiana and studied rocket science at the U.S. Naval Academy (really). After tours as weapons officer on a destroyer and a leadership instructor, she quit the navy to raise five kids, and once they were all in school, her brain didn't know what to do with that much free time so she started writing books. She and her husband make a home wherever the navy sends them, which has ranged from Kansas to Korea. She is the author of the Traitor's Kiss trilogy and the Blood and Moonlight duology.

Rezensionen

"Readers are quickly absorbed into this rich world of magic, murder, and mystery set in the medieval era . . . Fans of high fantasy and mystery will enjoy the lush details, from the buildings to the various characters." -School Library Journal

"Dark thrills for fans of psychology, magick, and murder." -Kirkus Reviews

"Beaty's protagonist is a medieval version of Clarice from The Silence of the Lambs, and she is constantly surrounded by chauvinistic men who underestimate her . . . Readers will appreciate this period piece starring a heroine with uncharted gifts and bravado. An elementary choice of a read." -Booklist

"[A] complex and socially conscious murder mystery set in a Western European-inspired medieval fantasy city that's hiding cataclysmic secrets . . . Beaty thoroughly and deftly examines prejudice against sex workers and people with mental illnesses, combining introspective dialogue, subtle magic, and hair-raising thrills for a riveting, thoughtful read." -Publishers Weekly
