I grew up in a tumbling-down Victorian house in the Midlands, UK, where I tapped out my first stories on a tiny blue typewriter. After moving to southeastern Australia as a teenager, my love of all things fantastical hooked me on science fiction. Then I grew up -- but I still play with words. Marriage to an American resulted in a second intercontinental move, and I lived in Arizona for five years. I now live in Melbourne, Australia, with my husband and daughter.I write SF adventure stories with a touch of romance. Song of Scarabaeus (2010) was nominated for the 2010 Philip K. Dick Award and the 2010 Aurealis Award for Best SF Novel. The sequel is Children of Scarabaeus (2011).http://www.saracreasy.com

If you are searching for a great story and some seriously good writing, this is right for you - what you won't find is a steamy, quickly...
I thought this was a solid novel. I liked the plot line and the characters. I thought that Edie was sympathetic and understandable. The things she went through, though in the sci-fi context, were comparable to life experiences people reading this may have. The character of Finn was interesting a...
Like the first book in this duology (Song of Scarabaeus), this was a quick, fun read for me. However, although I ultimately liked it, I definitely did not enjoy Children of Scarabaeus as much as I enjoyed its predecessor. For one thing, Edie seems to have developed a pretty annoying martyr complex i...
