Sue Lynn Tan writes fantasy stories inspired by the myths and legends she fell in love with as a child. Born in Malaysia, she studied in London and France, before settling in Hong Kong with her family.
Her love for stories began with a gift from her father, her first compilation of fairytales from around the world. After devouring every fable she could find in the library, she discovered fantasy books – spending much of her childhood lost in magical worlds.Daughter of the Moon Goddess is her debut and will be published by Harper Voyager in January 2022, with a sequel to come. It is a fantasy of love and family, immortals and magic – inspired by the beloved legend of the Chinese moon goddess, Chang’e,
flying to the moon upon taking the elixir of immortality.When not writing or reading, she enjoys exploring the many hills, lakes, and temples around her home. She is also grateful to be within reach of bubble tea and spicy food, which she unfortunately cannot cook.
