Combining the sinuous drama of Game of Thrones, the narrative drive of The Hunger Games and a brilliantly imagined and engaging young central protagonist, The Queen of the Tearling is the thrilling opening chapter in a dazzling, daringly original new fantasy adventure.
ERIKA JOHANSEN grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area. She went to
Swarthmore College in Pennsylvania before attending the celebrated
Iowa Writers Workshop, where she earned a Master of Fine Arts
degree. She eventually became an attorney but she never stopped
writing. Her debut was the international bestseller, The Queen of
the Tearling - the first novel in a remarkable sequence. This was
followed by the acclaimed The Invasion of the Tearling, The Fate of
the Tearling and a prequel, Beneath the Keep. Erika now lives in
England.
