Amelia Atwater-Rhodes began writing at age 13 and published her first novel, In the Forests of the Night, in 1999 while still in high school. The book launched her Den of Shadows series, which grew to ten entries exploring a world of vampires, witches, and shapeshifters. She quickly became one of the most recognized young adult fantasy authors of the early 2000s.

Her Kiesha’ra series (2003-2007) follows shapeshifters caught between warring avian and serpentine societies, while the Maeve’ra Trilogy (2014-2016) returns to the same world with new characters. The Mancer series, which began with Pyromancer and continued with three more books from 2016 to 2018, explores a darker setting centered on magic users caught up in political conflict. She has also written two standalone novels, Poison Tree and Promises to Keep, that exist alongside her longer series work.
