Autorenporträt
Claire Smith is a rising voice in science fiction, celebrated for her emotionally rich narratives and atmospheric worldbuilding. With a talent for weaving together speculative science, psychological depth, and suspense, she has carved out a unique space in genre fiction. Claire's work often explores the blurred lines between humanity and technology, consciousness and identity, love and survival. Her breakout novel, Death Calling, blends horror and hard sci-fi into a haunting story about grief, alien intelligence, and the cost of bravery in a collapsing world. She draws inspiration from real-world science, abandoned cities, cosmic horror, and the quiet resilience of human emotion. When she's not writing, Claire can be found sketching alien tech in her notebook, binge-watching cerebral sci-fi shows, or wandering through misty woods with her dog. Claire is passionate about storytelling that lingers-stories that ask deep questions, unsettle gently, and stay with you long after the last page is turned.
