About the Author: A.M. Brookes

Born on a small, sun-drenched island in the Caribbean, A.M. Brookes is the living embodiment of a powerful truth: that the biggest dreams can spring from the most tranquil shores. For years, the vibrant colors and rich folklore of her island home fueled a secret ambition: to become a fantasy author and bring new worlds to life.

Her debut novel, RainQueen, is more than just a book—it is a piece of her soul and the realization of a lifelong journey. It represents every late night spent writing, every moment of self-doubt conquered, and the unwavering belief that her voice belonged on the global stage. Brookes poured her heart into the story, crafting a narrative that she hopes will not only captivate readers but also serve as a beacon.

Through the pages of RainQueen, she sends a message to every aspiring writer back home: your barriers are not walls, but stepping stones. She hopes her success will ignite a flame in others on her island, encouraging them to pick up their pens, push through resistance, and share their unique stories with the world.

When she isn't weaving intricate fantasy narratives, A.M. Brookes finds joy in the simple, yet fulfilling, things in life. Her passions include diving into the drama of K-dramas and the magic of theatre, escaping into the wizarding world of Harry Potter, and indulging her inner child with Stitch and Anime. A dedicated gamer, a keen cook, and an avid reader, she cherishes the moments she spends immersed in stories and, most importantly, the time she shares with her close friends and family—her constant source of support and inspiration.
