Maggie Stiefvater has been publishing young adult fantasy since 2008 and has become one of the genre’s most distinctive voices. Her breakthrough came with Shiver (2009) and The Wolves of Mercy Falls series, a werewolf romance that found a massive YA audience. The Raven Cycle (2012-2016) cemented her reputation, following a group of teenagers searching for a dead Welsh king along a Virginia ley line.

Her work extends across multiple series and formats: the Gathering of Faerie duology draws on Irish fairy lore, the Pip Bartlett middle-grade books (co-written with Jackson Pearce) feature magical creatures, and the Dreamer Trilogy continues threads from The Raven Cycle into darker, more complex territory. She has also written standalone novels including The Scorpio Races (2011), contributed to the Spirit Animals multi-author series, and published graphic novel adaptations of The Raven Boys. Stiefvater is also a visual artist and musician whose creative range extends well beyond prose.
