Jacquelyn Benson writes smart historical fantasy where strong women confront the stranger things that occupy the borders of our world.
She once lived in a museum, wrote a master’s thesis on the cultural anthropology of paranormal investigation, and received a gold medal for being clever. She owes a great deal to her elementary school librarian for sagely choosing to acquire the entire Time-Life Mysteries of the Unknown series.
Her debut novel, The Smoke Hunter, was nominated for Best Historical Fiction by RT Times. When not writing, she enjoys the company of a tall, dark, and handsome English teacher and practices unintentional magic. Find her everywhere @jbensonink.

Jacquelyn Benson recommends
Lady Avely's Guide to Truth and Magic (2024)
(Matronly Misadventures, book 1)
Rosalie Oaks
"...charming combination of Regency manners, witty banter, dastardly murder, and supernatural hijinks"
The Witchwood Knot (2023)
(Victorian Faerie Tales, book 1)
Olivia Atwater
"The Witchwood Knot is stuffed with all the best Gothic Victorian haunted manor vibes, with unexpected love, ancient magic, and a truly bone-chilling monster. Winnie is a brave, hard-nosed, complex heroine you can't resist rooting for."
