Seanan McGuire lives and works in Washington State,
where she shares her somewhat idiosyncratic home with her
collection of books, creepy dolls, and enormous blue cats.
When not writing--which is fairly rare--she enjoys travel, and can
regularly be found any place where there are cornfields, haunted
houses, or frogs. A Campbell, Hugo, and Nebula Award-winning
author, Seanan's first book (Rosemary and Rue, the beginning of the
October Daye series) was released in 2009, with more than twenty
books across various series following since. Seanan doesn't
sleep much.

Praise for the October Daye series:
"The top of my urban-paranormal series list! I am so invested
in the worldbuilding and the characters.... The romance is real and
awesome, but doesn't overshadow the adventure." —Felicia Day
"The 13th outing for Daye is just as fresh and exciting as the
first. McGuire has built a complex world, where seemingly loose
ends are woven tightly into the series. Highly
recommended." —Library Journal (starred)
"Toby’s combination of pragmatic heroism and relentless
self-destruction makes her a compelling heroine in a secret
folklore-filled world that still feels fresh and dangerous
after all this time." —Publishers Weekly
"The worldbuilding in this series has astonishing depth,
and Night and Silence is no exception—12 books in,
McGuire is still giving readers fascinating new pieces of the
Faerie puzzle." —Booklist
"I can't believe McGuire can come up with another adventure as
riveting as this one. But then I say that after every book in this
series." —SFRevu
"McGuire has never lacked for courage in her writing....
The phenomenally inventive October Daye series showcases her
narrative daring and ingenuity beautifully." —RT Reviews
"Prepare to be dazzled.... Like the best of urban fantasy, with
each reveal and mystery solved, Toby's world grows ever more
enticing. As seductive as Faerie itself, this is one series I
could never give up." —All Things Urban Fantasy
"These books are like watching half a season of your favorite
television series all at once.... More than anything else, it's the
fun of it all that's kept me returning to McGuire's books and to
this series." —SF Signal
"The plot is strong, the characterization is terrific, the
tragedies hurt...and McGuire's usual beautiful writing and
dark humor are present and accounted for. This has become one
of my favorite urban fantasy series." —Fantasy Literature
