Order of Alina Boyden Books

Alina Boyden brings a unique perspective to the epic fantasy genre as both a novelist and activist. This American author launched the Stealing Thunder series, making her literary debut in 2020 with the first book of the same name.

Beyond crafting fantasy worlds, Boyden is pursuing her Ph.D in cultural anthropology, specializing in the study of transgender women's communities in Pakistan and their ongoing struggles for recognition and rights. This academic work resonates deeply with her personal advocacy—as a transgender woman herself, she has been at the forefront of civil rights battles in the United States, notably partnering with the ACLU in a significant legal case fighting for transgender healthcare access.

Her scholarly focus on international transgender rights movements and her firsthand experience as an activist inform her perspective both in academia and in her approach to storytelling, creating a rich foundation for her work in epic fantasy literature.
