| Bio: | Fiona Avery is a writer working in Los Angeles, California. Her work ranges from prose to screenwriting, with everything in between. Previous television credits include work on Babylon 5, Crusade and Earth: Final Conflict. The foremost news magazine in the industry, Wizard Magazine has listed Fiona Avery in its exclusive Top Ten Creators list. She has worked on titles such as Spiderman, X-Men and won the Big Apple Award for Marvel Comic's Araña in 2005. In 2001, her short story Luring the Tiger Out of the Mountains earned an honorable mention in The Year's Best Science Fiction, published by St. Martin's Press. Her first novel, a historical tale, The Crown Rose, was published in May 2005 through Prometheus Books. Paul Di Filippo of the Washington Post says, “The Crown Rose is a rarity in the fantasy field, in that it's a stand-alone volume, completely self-contained, and also mainly a historical novel with a subtle yet integral thread of fantastical content. Both qualities raise it above the herd, as do Avery's pleasant, limpid style, attention to detail, ingenious plotting, deft character development and canny core conceit.” |
