Debut author London Shah is a British-born Muslim of Pashtun ethnicity. She lives in London, via England's beautiful North. When she's not busy re-imagining the past, plotting an alternate present or dreaming up a surreal future, she's most likely drinking copious amounts of tea, eating all the sweets and cakes, strolling through Richmond Park or along the Thames, getting lost on an evening in the city's older, darker alleyways--preferably just after it's rained--listening to punk rock, or losing herself in a fab Sci-fi/fantasy film or book. If she could have only one super power, it would be to breathe underwater.

Dancers of the Dawn (2024)
(Dancers of the Dawn, book 1)
Zulekhá A Afzal
"Never has dance appeared so utterly beguiling - or deadly. A captivating read."
Lady MacBethad (2023)
Isabelle Schuler
"Stuck in a violent and male-dominated society, Gruoch MacBethad's machinations are limitless. Every time her stubborn pride, unwavering ambition, and lust for revenge forced her hand, I was dizzy with intrigue, relief, admiration-and of course growing dread. Schuler's masterful and captivating imagining of the early life of the real Lady Macbeth-one of history's much-maligned women-slowly seduces you into turning page after engrossing page until suddenly you're reading well into the night, holding your breath as the heart-pounding climax unfolds before you. Days later, and there remains this sense of tantalising, aching loss whenever I find myself thinking about the deeply complex yet very relatable Gruoch; I was utterly enthralled by her. Bold, brutal, and full of suspense, this dark and twisty epic is not to be missed."
Spice Road (2023)
(Spice Road, book 1)
