A. K. Larkwood
Oxford-based fantasy writer whose first two novels pair epic scale, strange worlds, and sharply drawn queer characters.
A vast fantasy world becomes intimate the moment a character chooses what they will betray—and what they will not.
A. K. Larkwood is an Oxford-based British fantasy author. Her debut novel, The Unspoken Name, was published in 2020, followed by The Thousand Eyes in 2022.
The two novels form an early catalog of epic, portal-spanning fantasy known for ambitious worldbuilding and queer characters. Larkwood's first- and second-year eligibility for the Astounding Award for Best New Writer further marked her emergence as a distinctive new speculative-fiction voice.
