Born and raised at the end of the Oregon Trail, Margaret Owen spent her childhood haunting the halls of Powell’s Books. After earning her degree in Japanese, her love of espresso called her north to Seattle, where she worked in everything from thrift stores to presidential campaigns. The common thread between every job can be summed up as: lessons were learned.
She now spends her days wrestling disgruntled characters onto the page, and negotiating a long-term hostage situation with her two monstrous cats. (There is surprisingly little difference between the two.)

Margaret Owen recommends
A Tempest of Tea (2024)
(Tempest of Tea, book 1)
Hafsah Faizal
"A wicked blend of secrets, heists, and vampires, with simmering notes of romance and a smoky foundation of revenge-A Tempest of Tea is a story that isn't afraid to show its fangs."
So Let Them Burn (2024)
(Divine Traitors, book 1)
Kamilah Cole
"So Let Them Burn elevates the game, asking hard questions about the power and agency of a chosen one whose destiny has been seemingly fulfilled. By the time you see the claws, they're already around your throat."
Strike the Zither (2022)
(Kingdom of Three, book 1)
Joan He
"Joan He takes no prisoners, and STRIKE THE ZITHER is her latest triumph. An intricate, expansive epic that poses difficult questions and eschews easy answers, this book is as ambitious as its scheming, ruthless cast--and just like its narrator, delivers above and beyond."
