About this author

Susan Dexter’s favorite subject for her books is fantasy and throughout her life has worked as a librarian, teacher, and writer.

Susan received her first award, the Merit Award, in 1976 from the Lawrence County Open Arts Show. She also received the Distinguished Award from them in 1982 and 1983. The Wizard’s Shadow was listed among the “Books for the Teen Age” in 1993 by the New York Public Library.

She now lives in New Castle, Pennsylvania in the vintage house that her book sales enabled her to buy and restore.


Susan Dexter isn't a Goodreads Author (yet), but she does have a blog, so here are some recent posts imported from her feed.
Picture No fanfare. I had the proof ordered before I went to New York, and Teddi and I did such a good job on the pre-production, there were no changes. I approved the proof, and for the first time Book Four of The Warhorse of Esdragon is available in print! Look for it at my signings, or on Amazon.

“All this blackness was within him, but that was where it really mattered. It was night without moon or stars, it was a doorless pit in the earth's bowels, it was forever. He felt black ice growing, blooming in his veins. One last sharp feeling was left to him--the bitter taste of failure. Then that went too. All was nothing.
Cold and everlasting night, and an everlasting laughter that was older and colder than the stars he would never see again. His heart squirmed wildly in his chest, seeking an escape that was denied it. Laughter like a glacier came again, rolling and crushing all else before it.
A bird sang.”
Susan Dexter
