Annabel Campbell writes fantasy with fierce female characters, disaster wizards and all the fun tropes. She lives near Lanark, Scotland, in a village where most of her neighbors are sheep. She has a PhD in cardiovascular science, and when not making things up for a living, she works from home as a Medical Writer. Her other joys are red wine, playing games, or showing you too many pictures of her dog. Her evil cat overlord occasionally lets her leave the house.

"The Outcast Mage is a spectacular debut, full of heart and magic, with complex, courageous characters and a blossoming underdog you cannot help but cheer on. Campbell is a shining new talent in fantasy." --Cameron Johnston, author of The Maleficent Seven

"Annabel Campbell has created a rich fantasy, textured with complex politics and mysteries upon mysteries. The Outcast Mage opens a door into a world that has enough depth to make it feel like a real place, and I want to get to the bottom of it all."--Joma West, author of Face and Twice Lived

"Disaster wizards galore, rich political intrigue, and a hint of dragonfire, The Outcast Mage reminds me why I love epic fantasy so much. If you like Trudi Canavan and Garth Nix, you're going to adore this."--Georgia Summers, author of City of Stardust
