Biografie

Stina Leicht (1972-) was born in St. Louis, MO and currently resides in Austin, TX. Leicht is the author of several well-regarded novels, including the two-book The Fey and The Fallen series (2011-2012), a dark fantasy set in war-torn 1970s Northern Ireland. The first book in the series, Of Blood and Honey, was nominated for a Locus Award for Best First Novel; the second, And Blue Skies From Pain was also a Locus nominee.

Her next novel project was the two-book series The Malorum Gates (2015-2017). The two books, Cold Ironand Blackthorne comprise a high 'flintlock fantasy' set in a world at war between the magic-using Kainen of Eledore and the magic-less humans of Acrasia. Blackthorne was a 2018 Locus nominee. In 2021, Leicht released a well-received space opera, a futuristic queer feminist riff on The Seven Samurai, entitled Persephone Station. Her latest novel Loki's Ring, a thoughtful space action-adventure set in and around a ringworld, was released in March 2023.

Leicht has also written several short stories, including "Texas Died For Somebody's Sins", published in the Rick Klaw-edited 2013 anthology Rayguns Over Texas. She received a nomination for the John W. Campbell Award for Best New Writer in 2012.
