Fantasy, science fiction and non-fiction for children and adults

Robinne Weiss

I am an author, educator and entomologist writing fantasy, science fiction, poetry and non-fiction for children and adults. My award-winning short stories have most recently appeared in the magazines Thema, Aurealis and The Fabulist, and in the anthologies Pause, Fission #4, Magic Portals and Aftermath. I've published over fifteen books, including a series of middle grade fantasy novels infested with dragons, three lighthearted urban fantasies, an epic YA fantasy series, a book of poetry, and some rather more serious non-fiction about insects.
