Author Biography

Trent Jamieson claims to be a bit lazy and a bit vague, and if he could have a superpower, it would be to be a little bit less lazy and a little bit less vague. Oh, and he's won a couple of awards - even people that are a little bit lazy, and a little bit vague, can win those too. We don't believe a word of it, of course. The author lives in Brisbane, Australia.

Reviews

"An inventive, darkly fascinating world, rich in menace and challenges." - Rowena Cory Daniells "Jamieson writes a fast-paced story studded with action-movie beats." - Financial Times "Trent Jamieson is well known in speculative fiction circles as a significant talent, writing beautifully crafted tales that often have a baroque sensibility and resonate on an emotional level." - Terra Incognita
