Naomi Cyprus is the author of Sisters of Glass and Daughters of Steel. She lives on the beach with her two cats, Pim and Haze. She came up with the idea for Halan's and Nalah's worlds while walking on the sand one day, when she imagined that each grain had the potential for magic. Ms. Cyprus loves strong tea and occasionally dyeing her hair blue.
Cyprus creates two appealing and independent female protagonists; their mirrored worlds are a fresh alternative to familiar medieval Europe-esque fantasylands. A story that will inspire many to find the light within. -- <em>Kirkus Reviews </em><strong>(starred review)</strong> Enchantment, plot twists, and the realization that what you see is not always what you get, make this debut novel inviting and fun.
