Monique Rockliffe

I was born in Johannesburg, South Africa, where I currently reside with my husband and one cheeky cat.

As an avid reader and movie lover since childhood, I devoured everything fantasy and science fiction, firmly establishing my love and passion for storytelling of the otherworldly kind.

In 2009 I began writing full-time (my first major work being The Sword Bearers series) when my successful professional dance career came to a natural end and my husband and greatest supporter urged me to pursue my talent for storytelling.

"Avalin, A Vympari Legend", will be published by February, 2025.

I initially self-published my five-star, epic fantasy Sword Bearers series between 2010 and 2016, but it has now been rewritten and is currently being proofread. I will be publishing all 12 books throughout 2025.
