Nicki Pau Preto is a fantasy author living just outside of Toronto - though her dislike of hockey, snow, and geese makes her the worst Canadian in the country. She studied art and art history in university and worked as a graphic designer before becoming a writer full-time. She is the author of the Crown of Feathers trilogy and the Sunday Times bestselling novel Bonesmith.
Gripping and action-packed in its plot, tender yet fierce in its romance, haunting and gritty in its worldbuilding, Bonesmith is a dark fantasy thrill ride from start to finish.
