Steph Bennion is a writer and musician, born and bred in the Black Country but now living in Hastings, England. Her science-fiction stories are written as a reaction to the dearth of alternative heroes amidst bookshelves swamped by tales of the supernatural. For every aspiring vampire or wizard, the world needs an astrophysicist, an engineer, or at the very least someone who can make the trains run on time.

THE LUCK OF THE DEVIL out now in paperback!

THE LUCK OF THE DEVIL has a special place in my heart.

The novel is a contemporary thriller of both comedy and tragedy, set in a world of superstit Read more of this blog post »
