Author’s Biography

I was born and raised in Malaysia, and currently live in England.

I’m the author of the Sorcerer to the Crown novels, historical fantasies with a postcolonial sensibility about magicians in 1800s London. I’ve also published a short story collection, Spirits Abroad, and a novella about nuns and bandits in a wuxia take on Emergency Malaya, The Order of the Pure Moon Reflected in Water. My newest novel is a contemporary Malaysian fantasy called Black Water Sister.

My writing has been awarded the Crawford, British Fantasy and Hugo Awards, and the LA Times Book Prize/Ray Bradbury Prize. I’ve also been shortlisted for the World Fantasy, Ignyte, Lambda and Locus Awards, and the Astounding Award for Best New Writer.
