Emily Varga



Emily Varga is a YA Fantasy author with a fondness for getting lost in bookstores, eating copious amounts of rice, and watching a lot of terrible reality tv. She has lived all over the world, but currently calls the Rocky Mountains of western Canada home, where she lives with her family and their menagerie of pets. When she’s not writing, Emily works as a family lawyer, where she learned more about storytelling than she ever expected.

Emily’s debut novel For She is Wrath is a Pakistani-inspired Count of Monte Cristo retelling.

"If you took Six of Crows, set it in London during the Great Exhibition & added alchemy, then you'd get M.K. Lobb's To Steal from Thieves. Lobb has written the fast-paced, sexy, magical caper of my dreams - I'm a little jealous of anyone about to experience it for the first time!"
