Leigh Bardugo

American fantasy author and creator of the Grishaverse

Atmospheric cityscapes, daring heists and morally grey outcasts define the fantasy fiction of Leigh Bardugo. Born in Jerusalem in 1975 and raised in California, Bardugo worked in journalism and special effects makeup before publishing Shadow and Bone in 2012. Her sprawling Grishaverse, inspired by nineteenth-century Russian imperial aesthetics and Dutch trade ports, features magical practitioners known as Grisha caught in escalating geopolitical wars. The acclaimed duology Six of Crows and Crooked Kingdom follows criminal mastermind Kaz Brekker on an impossible prison breakout, while Ninth House ventures into dark academia and Yale secret societies, winning the Goodreads Choice Award for Fantasy in 2019. Readers can start with Six of Crows or Shadow and Bone.
