Leah Larke is a self-published, independent author. Ballad of a Renegade is her debut novel, and the first of four books in the Syphon's Saga series. She lives in Santa Monica, California with her husband and long-haired dachshund. In addition to writing, Leah also sews fantasy costumes and creates digital art the not-so-old-fashioned way: with an iPad and stylus.
She loves traveling, history, books, art, food, wine, and a themed formal event (you will find at least one costume ball in each book of this series).
