Evie Able: A Voice for Multicultural Storytelling
Evie Able has earned recognition for her distinctive voice in children’s and young adult literature. The author of the Bad Little Fairy series, Hiding Dragons trilogy, and Phoenix Ashe, Able’s works blend elements of fantasy with diverse cultural backgrounds. This unique approach has earned her accolades such as the Kroger Award for Excellence in Creative Writing and the Golden Wizard Book Prize. These recognitions cement her as a leading figure in the genre.
Her stories are more than just whimsical tales, they are explorations of humanity, empathy, and kindness. Able’s books encourage young readers to understand the value of shared experiences across cultural boundaries. Through her work, she aims to foster an appreciation for curiosity, compassion, and the interconnectedness of all people.
With Phoenix Ashe and the Sorcers, Able continues her commitment to uplifting underrepresented voices within the genre. The novel promises to bring a fresh perspective to young adult fantasy, particularly with its focus on African American characters and the influences of global cultures.
Expanding the Horizons of Young Adult Fantasy
Phoenix Ashe and the Sands of Morpheus, the first book in the series, marks a bold new direction for Able’s storytelling. Set in a world rich with magic, culture, and diverse communities, the series brings a unique spin to the genre, featuring an African American female protagonist. The book not only explores themes of self-discovery, friendship and adventure; it also integrates influences from various global cultures to create a narrative that resonates universally.
In Able’s words, “The Phoenix Ashe and the Sorcers series is my most ambitious project yet. I want to reinforce for readers that the world of fantasy includes everyone and that the lessons of empathy and connection are crucial to all of us, no matter our background or heritage. Fantasy connects – not divides – us.”
The series promises to provide avid readers of all ages with characters they can relate to, while also taking them on thrilling journeys across fantastical realms. As the first book in the series approaches its release, readers and critics alike are excited about the opportunity to dive into a world that both mirrors and challenges their own.
