Keri Arthur

Keri Arthur is a successful author of urban fantasy, paranormal romance, and horror novels, who hails from Australia. Her writing career began at the tender age of 12, following the death of a favorite character in a book, an event that prompted her to rewrite the ending. This act marked the beginning of a lifelong passion for storytelling that has yet to abate. Arthur is a devoted fan of The X-Files and Buffy, often spending her spare time re-watching episodes of these classic series. She currently resides in Melbourne, where she lives with her husband and daughter.

Arthur has established herself as a formidable figure in the horror genre, thanks to her distinctive blend of romance and fantasy. Her work primarily focuses on the lives and loves of vampires and werewolves, and she has developed a loyal following of readers who appreciate her unique storytelling approach. The main protagonist in many of her novels is Riley Jenson, a character who has become a fan favorite over the years.

With more than 25 novels to her name, Arthur has achieved significant success as an author. She has received multiple nominations in the Best Contemporary Paranormal category of the Romantic Times Reviewer's Choice Awards and has won RT's Career Achievement Award for urban fantasy. Her Riley Jenson Guardian series, in particular, has garnered widespread acclaim, earning her a spot on the New York Times bestseller list. Despite her achievements, Arthur remains a down-to-earth figure, residing in Melbourne with her daughter and two dogs. She continues to write and create new worlds for her readers to explore, building on her reputation as a master of urban fantasy and paranormal romance.
