edit data

Nora Delzelle is an avid reader of almost every fiction genre imaginable, though science fiction and fantasy have always held a special place on her shelves. Growing up, she was the kid happily disappearing into the strange worlds of Bradbury, Herbert, and Asimov while everyone else wondered what, exactly, she found so fascinating.

That fascination with the impossible eventually led her somewhere surprisingly practical: a career in science.

Now she writes stories where mythology and magic collide with mystery, science, and the occasional impossible creature. She has a particular fondness for old legends, complicated characters, and romances that might—or might not—break your heart.
