Rachel Aaron (born c. 1982) is an American author of fantasy[1] and (under the pen name Rachel Bach) science fiction.[2]
Work
[edit | edit source]The first book in the Paradox Series, Fortune's Pawn (2013), is a type of space opera which was called "lots of fun" by Kirkus Reviews.[2] Fortune's Pawn also marked Aaron's first time publishing science fiction.[3] Publishers Weekly, however, felt that the tropes of the first book in the series were cliché and made up of "stock set pieces."[4] Aaron's Paradox Series, including Honor's Knight (2014) deals with ethical questions amid "great space battles, awesome shootouts and enough betrayals and alliances to rival 'A Game of Thrones,'" according to The Washington Post.[5] Kirkus also called Heaven's Queen (2014) a "stunning conclusion" to the Paradox Series.[6] Publishers Weekly wrote that Heaven's Queen was a "satisfying conclusion."[7]
Aaron's fantasy work on the Eli Monpress series revolves around a "legendary and lovable con man."[8] The first book in the series, The Spirit Thief (2010) starts slow, according to the Publishers Weekly, but becomes a "romp of lighthearted fantasy."[9]
Awards
[edit | edit source]On May 11, 2016, Rachel Aaron won the Best Fantasy Audie Award for her work, Nice Dragons Finish Last, as narrated by Vikas Adam.[10][11]
