Kalynn Bayron

Author

Kalynn Bayron is an American author of young adult fantasy fiction known for her reimaginings of classic fairy tales through the lens of race, gender, and queer identity. Her debut novel Cinderella Is Dead is set in a dystopian world where the Cinderella story has been weaponised to control women, and follows a young Black girl who... refuses to comply. Bayron's writing combines inventive worldbuilding with sharp social commentary, creating fantasy stories that are both thrilling and thought-provoking. Her audiobooks and books are popular with YA listeners and readers who enjoy fairy tale retellings with a feminist, inclusive perspective. Read more Show less
