Sarah J. Maas

Sarah J. Maas

"Woven in the vein of a Tolkien fantasy; this commingling of comedy, brutality and fantasy evokes a rich alternate universe with a spitfire young woman as its brightest star."

Sarah J. Maas wrote the first incarnation of her debut novel, Throne of Glass, when she was just sixteen. Since its publication, it has been shortlisted for the Waterstones Children's Teen Book of the Year and has sold in no fewer than 37 languages. The sequels, Crown of Midnight and Heir of Fire, are New York Times bestsellers.

She has also written the A Court of Thorns and Roses and Crescent City series, which have helped to secure her as one of the most beloved names in the young adult and fantasy genres. To date, she has sold more than 12 million books, and counting.


Meet Sarah J. Maas

Sarah always loved creating stories. When she was a child, she wrote a Sailor Moon fanfiction, and her breakout novel, Throne of Glass, originally began as just a few chapters shared on FictionPress.com. The chapters shot to popularity, and Sarah eventually removed them from the site when she decided to publish them as a book.

The same year that she started sending her story around to agent, Maas graduated magna cum laude from Hamilton College in New York. Here she majored in creative writing, and did a minor in religious studies. Within two years, Bloomsbury had purchased her first novel, and the rest is history.

When asked about her inspirations, Maas said that both The Hero and the Crown and Sabriel inspired her love of fantasy and helped set her on the path to eventually writing in the same genre.

When Sarah is not writing, she can be found watching everything from Star Wars to Hayao Miyazaki films and reading fairy tales. She married her husband Josh in 2010, and now has a son and a daughter.
