Lots of writers create characters, but Rebecca Roanhorse also creates the worlds in which those characters exist.
Roanhorse writes speculative fiction; her new project is a novella called “Tread of Angels,” which she describes as a reimagining of the American West set in a small Colorado mining town. It’s due out in November.
She’s also written novels, for Marvel Comics and for TV.
