      O autorovi

      Alexis Henderson

      Alexis Henderson

      Autorka spekulativní literatury se zálibou v temné fantasy, čarodějnictví a kosmickém hororu. Vyrostla v Savanah v Georgii, nejstrašidelnějším městě Spojených států, což do ní zaselo celoživotní zájem o duchařské příběhy. Pokud nemá nos zabořený v knize, věnuje se malování nebo sledování hororů se svým kočičím souputníkem. Nyní žije ve sluncem zalitých mokřinách v Charlestonu v Jižní Karolíně. Rok čarodějnic je jejím románovým debutem.
