Sarah Smith

Sarah Smith’s newest project is also her oldest: the first SF literary game, originally published in 1992, has now been re-programmed and is available free to play at www.kingofspace.org. Her novels are published in 15 languages and have become bestsellers here and abroad. Her CHASING SHAKESPEARES has been called “the best novel about the Bard since NOTHING LIKE THE SUN” (Samuel R. Delany). Her young adult ghost thriller, THE OTHER SIDE OF DARK, won both the Agatha (for best YA mystery of the year) and the Massachusetts Book Award for best YA book of the year. Her newest novel is CRIMES AND SURVIVORS, a mystery about Titanic. “Read it and be enthralled!” says William Martin. Two of the earlier books in her Edwardian mystery series are New York Times Notable Books. She is the editor of TOTAL AMNESIA and A NEW SHAKESPEAREAN POEM? Sarah holds a Ph.D. from Harvard. She loves Brazil, strange machines, and talking with readers, and can be reached through her Web site, www.sarahsmith.com.
