Aimee Carter writes young adult and middle grade fiction with a focus on mythology, power, and survival. Her Goddess Test series (2011-2013) retells Greek mythology through a modern lens, with a teenage girl who must pass a series of tests to become the wife of Hades. The series ran for three novels plus several novellas that filled in the gods’ backstories.
The Blackcoat Rebellion (2013-2015) moved into dystopian territory, following a girl who is surgically altered to impersonate a powerful political figure. Simon Thorn (2016-2018) shifted to middle grade, with an animal-shapeshifter premise. Carter’s most recent series, Royal Blood, blends mystery with royal drama and has been publishing since 2023.
Carter’s output is steady and genre-flexible. She’s comfortable writing mythological romance, political dystopia, middle grade adventure, and royal mystery, adapting her voice to fit each audience without losing the fast pacing that runs through all her work.
