Jo Riccioni graduated from Leeds University with a Masters in Medieval Literature. She has lived and worked around the world but finally settled in Australia where she conjures up fantasy worlds from a shed in her garden on Garigal land in Sydney’s Northern Beaches. Jo’s series, The Branded Season, was inspired by a long-standing desire from uni days to see women and women’s issues at the heart of the epic fantasy canon. Jo's award-winning short fiction has been anthologised in Best Australian Stories 2010 and 2011, and her story, Can't Take the Country out of the Boy has been optioned for a short film. The Italians at Cleat's Corner Store, her first novel, was awarded the International Rubery Award for Fiction in 2015. https://www.joriccio ...more

A fabulously written tale for our times. Loved the characters and the story. I couldn’t put it down. It manages to be a literary alarm call for our beleaguered times without being preachy.
