Liz De Jager
Liz De Jager is represented by Juliet Mushens
Liz is far too fond of coffee shops and beautiful stationery but she uses both as incentive to keep on writing. Having been born and raised in South Africa, Liz now lives in the UK with her husband and their unruly Jack Russell. Liz has always loved reading and writing, much to the annoyance of her family who could never leave pens lying about without finding her scribbling on walls or bits of paper.
The Blackhart Legacy is her first series. Banished was published in February 2014, followed by Vowed in November 2014 and Judged in January 2016. The books are contemporary urban fantasies heaped with action, romance, fairy tale creatures, folklore and lashings of mythology. Liz sincerely hopes that the events she writes about in the series do not come true.
