About the Author
Whit Hardmour writes dark romantic fantasy about women who refuse the stories they were given and write new ones. Book of the Banished is her debut novel, blending gothic atmosphere, forbidden magic, romance, and the darker edges of fairytale.
Drawn to old stories, beautiful books with sprayed edges that feel like portals into another world and heroines who refuse to behave, Whit writes fantasy where the pages are infused with romance, magic and a lot of rebellion. And worlds where the worst day in a person’s life is just the beginning of a brand new adventure.
