T. Kingfisher is the vaguely absurd pen-name of Ursula Vernon, an author from North Carolina. In another life, she writes children's books and weird comics. She has been nominated for the World Fantasy and the Eisner, and has won the Hugo, Sequoyah, Nebula, Alfie, WSFA, Coyotl and Ursa Major awards, as well as a half-dozen Junior Library Guild selections. This is the name she uses when writing things for grown-ups. Her work includes multiple fairy-tale retellings and odd little stories about elves and goblins. When she is not writing, she is probably out in the garden, trying to make eye contact with butterflies.
T. Kingfisher solidifies her place as natural and inevitable heir to the greats of her genre, while remaining clearly and unquestionably a unique voice in fantasy -- Seanan McGuire NETTLE & BONE brings Kingfisher's signature honesty and authenticity to a fairy tale setting: the result is refreshing, earnest but not naive, and deeply satisfying. I devoured it. This is one that's going to stay with me for a long time -- Sarah Gailey, author of MAGIC FOR LIARS, on NETTLE & BONE A delight throughout -- Louisa Morgan, author of A SECRET HISTORY OF WITCHES T. Kingfisher uses the bones of fairy tale to create something entirely her own, written in gloriously clear and transparent prose -- Emily Tesh, author of SOME DESPERATE GLORY Funny, frightening, and full of heart; I loved it -- Alix E. Harrow, author of THE TEN THOUSAND DOORS OF JANUARY Charming and macabre, often both at the same time -- A. K. Larkwood, author of THE UNSPOKEN NAME Absolutely delightful and full of charm and truth -- Naomi Novik, on THORNHEDGE Creepy, funny, heartfelt, and full of fantastic characters I absolutely loved -- Melissa Caruso, author of THE TETHERED MAGE Exciting, deeply wise, sad, brutal and compassionate all at once. And beautifully written, with a plot as cunning as fine embroidery -- Catriona Ward
