Bio & High Resolution Headshot
Karyne Norton
Karyne Norton hasn’t found the key to time travel, immortality, or infinite lives, so she’s taking a break from nursing and photography to focus on raising four human beings while writing epic fantasy. Her debut novel, Blood of the Stars, launched on Kickstarter in September 2023 and comes to retailers March 2024.
When she’s not writing, she’s reading, which is why she’s also the host of the Finding Fantasy Reads podcast, where she reads a new short story every week from a variety of fantasy authors. Check it out to find your next favorite author!
Karyne Norton’s Blood of the Stars crafts a rich fantasy realm exploding with life and complex heroes who grow throughout a quick-paced plot.
A story of the things that bind us—the life-giving things, and the ones that break our hearts. Karyne Norton’s debut novel is a sweeping epic that pulls you deeply into the lives and relationships of her characters, the beginning of what promises to be an exceptional series!
Don’t miss Karyne Norton’s debut novel! Blood of the Stars is rich and immersive with plenty of action and heart. I cannot wait to read the sequel!
“Every now and then an author comes along who you know is going to be special. Even rarer is the author where you say, ‘I wish I’d written that.’ Karyne Norton is the latter. Do yourself a kindness and get swept away in her immersive and brilliant storytelling.”
Blood of the Stars is a gripping epic with rich, fascinating magic, strong found family vibes, and hints of a slow-burn romance I am already in love with.
