Hi, I’m Liz S. Maxwell—storyteller, sticker-slinger, and chaos connoisseur. I write books where love burns, magic bites back, and someone’s always making the wrong choice for the right reasons.

I live in NYC with my ride-or-die husband, our three wild kids, a tiny hellhound named Boot, and two feathered roommates, Hoggle and Ludo, who yell more than they should. If I’m not writing, I’m probably crying over fictional people or plotting twelve more books I shouldn’t be writing yet.

Liz Maxwell liked Abigail's review of Shields and Scales: A Vikings and Dragons Fantasy Anthology: "With plenty of variety despite having the common theme of vikings and dragons, there is something in this anthology for everyone. The Last Skyfire was a little slow at the start for me, but it picked up steam quickly especially once the pieces started" Read more of this review »

Liz Maxwell answered Goodreads's question: What are you currently working on? Right now, I'm juggling a few exciting projects—because why stick to one world when you can live in three?
