Vickers is the bestselling author of the Natural Order YA fantasy series, as well as a collection of epic fantasy novels (mostly forthcoming) set in the world of the Kinship Thrones. Vickers has been writing since the age of 7, when she penned a story about her cat, Shadow, getting lost in an ice cave in Alaska. A year later she wrote about two unicorns who went questing through a cave, and shortly after that, about a girl who got transported into a magical realm through--you guessed it!--a cave. That trend continues to this day; her Natural Order series is set mainly underground, and the characters take a jaunt to a rather famous cave at one point. Maybe it was her secret obsession with caves which led her to New Zealand, the land of hobbit-holes and glowworm caves. But the country comes with more than one benefit! When she's not exploring caves (literally or literature-ly), she loves crocheting, baking, and hiking with her husband.
