Genoveva Dimova is a Bulgarian fantasy author and archaeologist based in Scotland. Her debut duology inspired by Bulgarian folklore, *Foul Days* and *Monstrous Nights*, received five starred reviews in total from *Publishers Weekly*, *Booklist*, and *Library Journal*, and has been translated into nine languages. Her third novel, *The Travelling Museum of Witchcraft*, inspired by her work as an archaeologist and her love of humourous fantasy, will be released in 2027. When she’s not writing, Genoveva likes to explore old ruins, climb even older hills, and listen to practically ancient rock music.
