About the Author
EILEEN KERNAGHAN lives in New Westminster, British Columbia. Her latest fantasy novel, The Alchemist’s Daughter is her sixth book in this genre. The Snow Queen (Thistledown, 2001), won the Canadian Science Fiction and Fantasy Award, the Aurora, for best long-form work in English, and was short listed by the Canadian Library Association for Best Children’s Book of the Year. Her earlier Grey Isle Trilogy (Ace, 1980-1989) won a silver medal for original paperback fiction from The West Coast Review of Books. Songs from the Drowned Lands won the Canadian Science Fiction and Fantasy Award, while the third book in the series, The Sarsen Witch was short listed for the same award. The experimental Dance of the Snow Dragon, a young adult fantasy novel with a Tibetan Buddhist background, was published in 1995 by Thistledown Press.
In addition to her fantasy novel work, Kernaghan’s poems and short stories have appeared in many North American publications, both mainstream and speculative.
