S T Bende

Before finding domestic bliss in suburbia, S.T. Bende lived in Manhattan Beach (where she became overly fond of Peet’s Coffee) and Europe… where she became overly fond of McVitie's cookies. Her love of Scandinavian culture and a very patient Norwegian teacher inspired the books of The Elsker Saga (Tur, Elsker, Endre, and Tro) and The Ære Saga (Perfekt Order, Perfekt Control, and Perfekt Balance). She hopes her characters make you smile, and she dreams of skiing on Jotunheim and Hoth.
