Laura Dreiže (1990) is a Latvian writer, translator, editor, author of acclaimed fantasy and science fiction novels. Her first stories were crafted during her school days, ignited by a fascination for myths, legends, history, and folklore from various cultures, which still remains her primary source of inspiration. She's a three-time winner of the Zvaigzne ABC award, and several of her books have been included in the reading promotion program Children, Youth and Parents' Jury.

Quotes by Laura Dreiže (?)

“Spēks, kas no dejotājiem bija ieplūdis viņā, iekvēlojās un lauzās ārup ar tādu joni, ka Nara tik tikko noturējās kājās. Viņa bija zvaigzne. Viņa bija pati savas vētras acs, tikai šī vētra nepostīja.”
― Laura Dreiže, Dejotāja
