SABAA TAHIR is a former newspaper editor who grew up in California’s Mojave Desert at her family’s eighteen-room motel.

Her number one New York Times bestselling An Ember in the Ashes series has been translated into more than thirty-five languages, and the first book in the series was named one of TIME’s 100 Best YA Books of All Time. Tahir’s contemporary novel, All My Rage, won the National Book Award for Young People’s Literature, the Michael L. Printz Award, and the Boston Globe-Horn Book Award for Fiction and Poetry. Heir was a number one Sunday Times bestseller.
