Biography

Summer Wigmore was born in Hamilton and now lives in Wellington. Her debut novel, The Wind City, was Shortlisted for the 2014 Sir Julius Vogel Award for best novel, a considerable achievement given that she was only 20 when it was published. Her depiction of a Wellington complete with its parallel world of Maori spirits (iwi atua) drew widespread praise. Inspiration for the book came while sitting on a bus, imagining unseen eyes in the shadows and crevices of the city. She loves urban fantasy and weaving fairy tale elements into contemporary fiction.
