Taya DeVere is a Finnish science fiction writer who loves telling stories about perfectly imperfect people in dystopian and post-apocalyptic settings.

She is the writer of more than 21 books, and is always developing new stories to delight her readers. Taya's restless feet have taken her all over Finland, the United Kingdom, Spain, and North America. She lived in the United States for seven years but is currently based in Turku, Finland with her partner, Chris.Best things in life: friends & family, memories made, and mistakes to learn from. Taya also loves licorice ice cream, secondhand clothes and things, bunny sneezes, salmiakki, and sauna.Dislikes: clowns, the Muppets, Moomin trolls, dolls (especially porcelain dolls), human size mascots, and celery.Taya's writing is inspired by the works of authors like Margaret Atwood, Octavia Butler, Hugh Howey, and Blake Crouch.
