Mark Lawrence is a research scientist working on artificial intelligence. He is a dual national with both British and American citizenship, and has held secret-level clearance with both governments. At one point, he was qualified to say, “This isn’t rocket science—oh wait, it actually is.” He is the author of the Broken Empire trilogy (Prince of Thorns, King of Thorns, and Emperor of Thorns), the Red Queen’s War trilogy (Prince of Fools, The Liar’s Key, and The Wheel of Osheim) and the Book of the Ancestor series (Red Sister).
Praise for Red Sister
“Fabulous, in-depth world building, great characters, and as always
with Lawrence, plotting that is fresh and unpredictable...If you
like fresh, take-no-prisoners fantasy, this is for you.”—Rick
Riordan, #1 New York Times bestselling author
of The Burning Maze
“Dark, passionate, tense, with a female hero anyone could relate
to—I was utterly fascinated! This is no pretty, flowery tale,
but one of vastly different people struggling to survive when
a hostile government comes to power.”—Tamora Pierce, #1 New
York Times bestselling author of Battle Magic
“The lyrical excellence of previous books is present in full force
here and it’s fair to say that Mark Lawrence has evolved into a
master of his craft. In Red Sister he has produced a novel that is
as thought provoking as it is entertaining, and as poignant as it
is ferocious. Highly recommended.”—Anthony Ryan, New York Times
bestselling author of The Waking Fire
“In this stunning, action-filled series launch, Lawrence ('Broken
Empire' trilogy) establishes a fantastic world in which religion
and politics are sharp as swords, with magic and might held in the
hands of wonderful and dangerous women. Impatient George R.R.
Martin fans will find this a pleasing alternative until the next
installment in his “A Song of Ice and Fire” saga arrives.”—Library
Journal, starred review
