About the author
As a child, F. F. John was an incredibly inquisitive and she was encouraged to find answers in books. When she’d read everything her home had to offer and there was no more space in the house to accommodate additional books, her mother told her to write her own stories. So, she did. Today, she continues to create worlds of characters that have a lot to say about everything. And she lets them do just that. They tend to give answers to the riddles she’s yet to solve. F. F. John’s first series The Nome Chronicles is a young adult dystopian collection of four books. It includes The Proem (a prequel novella), The Pursual, The Paladin and The Paragon (coming January 2018). Also upcoming is her urban fantasy series, the LegionBorn Trilogy and a young adult space opera series called the Excelsia series.
