STARR Z. DAVIES lives in northern Wisconsin with her husband, two kids, and imaginary pets. She spends her days writing by the lake, dreaming up new ways to torture her characters. At night, she tends to binge-watch movies and television shows. Starr first realized she wanted to write when in 4th grade, when she wrote a scary story about a haunted house. Her greatest inspirations were authors like J. R. R. Tolkien, Brandon Sanderson, and Robert Jordan (who continues to thread roots in all her work). Starr is best known for her Powers Series, a YA Dystopian trilogy about a future world with superpowers. She also wrote the Fractured Empire Saga, an award-winning medieval Mongolian epic based on the true life of Mandukhai the Wise.
