Aliette de Bodard

Aliette de Bodard is a French-Vietnamese author of science fiction and fantasy who has won the Nebula, Locus, and British Science Fiction Association Awards for her richly imagined fiction. Her work draws on Vietnamese culture, mythology, and history to create vivid, original worlds that stand apart from the Western-dominated traditions of the genre. Her major works include the Xuya Universe series, set in a future where Asian civilisations dominate space, and the Dominion of the Fallen trilogy, a gothic fantasy set in a ruined Paris populated by fallen angels. De Bodard's books and audiobooks offer listeners beautifully crafted speculative fiction that brings fresh cultural perspectives to science fiction and fantasy.
