Sarah Prineas lives in the midst of the corn in Iowa City, Iowa, and can usually be found writing fantasy novels and stories on a matte-black stealth MacBook called Sparks. Sarah holds a Ph.D. in English literature and recently taught honors seminars on fantasy and science fiction literature at the University of Iowa. She has an amazing dragon action-figure collection and occasionally bakes biscuits (although she says hers never seem to turn out as tasty as Benet's do in the magic thief).
Sarah is married to John Prineas, a physics professor, which comes in handy when she's writing about magic prisoning devices. They are the parents of Maud and Theo. If you're looking for more of Conn's exciting adventures, they continue in the Magic Thief: Lost.
