J.Y. Sam

For British author, J.Y. Sam, sadly, her book characters are far more interesting than she is! She's married, has a beautiful if somewhat crazy daughter, a thoroughly sensible son, and a rather, shall we say, 'unique' Italian husband. She lives a quiet life working at home, surrounded by her cat Phoebe, her duck Rosie, three java finches, and a shoal of rapidly multiplying tank fish. Worryingly, she chats much more with her animals (they don't answer back) than with her family...

Her books, The Ingenious Trilogy, are science fiction and fantasy (contemporary) mystery thrillers for both young adults and adults alike. The books follow the lives of a group of teenagers who are grappling with discovering their special and disturbing mind powers. Tai sees people's thoughts and feelings as blooms of colour, Milly discovers an extraordinary genius, and Mei Hui finds that she can read people's hearts... Vague memories of a common past also haunt them. The Ingenious children must eventually come together to unleash the full force of their abilities, risking their very sanity, in an epic battle of the world's greatest minds.
