Marie Niehoff , geboren 1996, hegt schon seit ihrer Kindheit eine Faszination für fantastische Geschichten. Diesen darf vor allem eines nicht fehlen: Romantik. Wenn sie nicht gerade schreibt, malt sie, kreiert Moodboards, kümmert sich um ihre unzähligen Zimmerpflanzen oder legt Tarotkarten. Ihr Fantasy-Debüt, «When The King Falls», stieg unmittelbar nach Erscheinen auf die SPIEGEL-Bestsellerliste ein. Band 2, «The Queen Will Rise», erreichte sogar Platz 1. Auch «Burning Crown», der erste Band ihrer neuen Dragonbound-Trilogie, ist ein Spiegel-Nr.1-Bestseller. Ihre Bücher wurden mittlerweile in sieben Sprachen übersetzt.
