Pascale Lacelle is a French Canadian author from Ottawa, Ontario. A longtime devourer of books, she started writing her own at age thirteen and quickly became enthralled by the magic of words. After earning her bachelor's degree in French literature, she realized the English language is where her literary heart lies (but don't tell any of her French professors that). When not lost in stories, she's most likely daydreaming about food and travel, playing with her dog Roscoe, or trying to curate the perfect playlist for every mood. You can find her on Instagram and X @PascaleLacelle.

* "This sequel is as richly written as the first and maintains momentum with unexpected twists. The narrative is extremely complex, yet all the varied pieces fit together perfectly...All of the characters are painstakingly drawn and well-rounded. The cliff-hanger ending is a promise for this fantastical trilogy's conclusion." --Booklist, starred review "11/1/24"

"An expansive and engaging sequel that builds on the fresh worldbuilding of the original."--Kirkus Reviews "10/15/24"
