Sunyi Dean is an autistic author of fantasy fiction. Originally born in the States and raised in Hong Kong, she now lives in Yorkshire with her children. When not reading, running, falling over in yoga, or rolling d20s, she sometimes escapes the city to wildswim in lonely dales.
Her short stories have featured in the Best of British Science Fiction 2018 anthology, Prole, FFO, Tor Dot Com, etc.
The Book Eaters is Dean’s debut novel.
‘A gripping and beautifully plotted story told with verve and
deliciously dark wit’
Daily Mail ‘An exciting blend of gothic horror and action, smart
and haunting’ Laura Purcell, bestselling author of The Silent
Companions "Some novels are intended to be devoured in one sitting.
Such is the case with Sunyi Dean’s The Book Eaters. Innovative,
unique, poignant, and told with a voice as original as the story
itself. I finished this novel in that one sitting, yet I’ll be
pondering it for a long time to come. This is the debut of a new
master of the modern fantasy. Don ’t miss it’
James Rollins, #1 NYT bestselling author of The Starless Crown ‘A
delightfully weird exploration of motherhood, queerness, and
escaping patriarchal norms’
Buzzfeed ‘Raw and imaginative, this gritty, gothic anti-fairytale
knows the truth: love will make a villain out of anyone’
Olivie Blake, NYT bestselling author of The Atlas Six ‘Sunyi Dean’s
The Book Eaters is a darkly sweet pastry of a book about family,
betrayal, and the lengths we go to for the ones we love. Great
reading for a rainy morning, with tea or coffee on, a cat in your
lap, and nowhere to be but lost in a delicious modern fairy
tale’
Christopher Buehlman, author of The Blacktongue Thief ‘A riveting
tale that consumed me as earnestly as I devoured it. Full of grit
and humanity, Sunyi Dean expertly weaves the complexities of
motherhood, loyalty, and found family in a world not far from our
own. Dean's debut has already established her as a master of craft.
If I were a book eater, this novel would be one to savour’
Saara El-Arifi, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Final Strife
