Author of Several YA Fantasy Series
About Kendare Blake
In 2011, Kendare Blake rewrote the rules for YA fantasy by publishing 'Anna Dressed in Blood,' a novel where a teenage ghost hunter wields a rusted knife and a sardonic wit, not a prophecy or chosen-one destiny, to survive a haunted town. She didn’t just add gore to teen fiction; she anchored visceral horror in emotional authenticity, letting grief, guilt, and queer longing shape her characters’ choices as much as any curse. Her Three Dark Crowns trilogy reimagined royal succession not through politics alone, but through biology, magic systems rooted in menstrual blood and venomous serpents, and sisters who love and betray each other with equal ferocity. Blake’s prose is taut, unsentimental, and deliberately unmoored from moral binaries, her villains have backstories that ache, her heroes make decisions that cost them everything. She writes like someone who’s read every Gothic novel, watched every slasher film, and then asked: what if the girl who survives isn’t healed by the end, but changed, sharpened, irrevocably hers?
