Juliet E McKenna has always been fascinated by myth and history, other worlds and other peoples. After studying Classics at Oxford she worked in personnel management before combining motherhood with book-selling. Since her debut novel, The Thief's Gamble, was published in 1999, she has written a dozen epic fantasy novels, most recently The Chronicles of the Lescari Revolution, plus assorted and diverse shorter fiction. She reviews for web and print magazines, teaches creative writing and fits all this around her husband and teenage sons. Living in West Oxfordshire, she's currently working on a new fantasy trilogy, The Hadrumal Crisis.
