O autorovi

Sabaa Tahir

Vyrostla v rodinném motelu v Mohavské poušti v Kalifornii. Čas trávila hltáním fantasy románů, nájezdy na bratrovu skrýš s komiksy a špatným hraním na kytaru. Vystudovala Kalifornskou univerzitu v Los Angeles a pracovala ve Washington Post. Žije se svou rodinou v San Francisco Bay Area. Román Jiskra v popelu začala psát během nočních směn, když pracovala jako editorka. Kniha vychází ve třiadvaceti zemích a dostala se do žebříčku bestsellerů New York Times.
