Adare Elyse writes clean young adult fantasy and science fiction novels. An award-winning author, she’s a fan of the fantastic, including magical horses and medieval costumes. She has a passion for puns and a soft spot for sunrises. Powered by tea and epic music, she draws inspiration from her home in the beautiful Rocky Mountains, her travels around the world, and her passion to share uplifting truth in fiction.
For Adare Elyse, speculative fiction books have provided a safe haven in a scary world, a source of inspiration amid the mundane, and a wealth of knowledge outside the nonfiction section. Fantasy fascinates her because of its rich intricacy in world and word and enchants her because it is removed from our experience just enough that the deep universal truths shine with greater clarity. She writes to share hope that is founded on ultimate reality—and just to provide wholesome and enjoyable stories.
Welcome to her realm. Enjoy the adventure!
Note: She wrote her bio in the third person because the experts told her to, but most of the places where this website uses the word “I”, she’s the one talking. 🙂
