Elizabeth Anne Martins is a Philadelphia-based writer who studied English and Publishing at Rosemont College. Her writing often explores resilience, identity, and survival, blending speculative elements with deeply human stories. Her debut novel, Dry Lands, is a post-apocalyptic story of motherhood and survival set in a world reshaped by water. The book was named a 2024 Great Group Reads pick by the Women's National Book Association and has resonated with readers who connect with its themes of hope and endurance. When she's not writing, Elizabeth can usually be found at the piano, composing something new or playing a duet with her son and husband. Music, like storytelling, is her way of making sense of the world-one note or word at a time.
""This is a gripping, inventive and very human tech thriller."" -- SFX Magazine ""This is a story of trust, and a brilliant, unique journey into the vulnerabilities and insecurities of the self."" -- British Fantasy Society “Imaginative, sophisticated, and full of suspense.” -- Dr. Alice Violett, historian & book critic “Thought-provoking…perfect for fans of mind-bending sci-fi like Inception.” -- Readworthy on BookBub ""Martins has fun meticulously unpeeling the onion layers of Pip’s mind and showing how truth and trust can be malleable concepts. Opposite World reads rather like a course of psychotherapy with SF trappings, its narrative given impetus not so much by storytelling drive but by the protagonist’s desire, relatable and common to many, to understand herself better and heal the mental and emotional fissures left by her past."" -- Financial Times “An articulate near-future Black Mirror-style take on loss and memory in a high the thriller package."" -- Concatenation
