Ohio-born author Cinda Williams Chima nearly failed first grade because she was always daydreaming. By junior high, she got in trouble for writing novels in class. Yet the magic of books took her from first grade failure to first generation college graduate to New York Times best-selling author of the Seven Realms, Heir Chronicles, and Shattered Realms teen fantasy series. Her newest series launched in November, 2022 with Children of Ragnarok (Balzer&Bray, HarperCollins.) It marries Norse mythology and magic with swordplay, romance and cut-throat politics.
