London Shah

London Shah is a British Muslim of Pashtun ethnicity who’s been making up stories for as long as she can remember. She has lived in Britain's capital for most of her life, via England's beautiful North. She enjoys a steady supply of tea and all things sweet, strolling through Richmond Park or along the Thames, getting lost on an evening in the city’s older, darker alleyways — preferably just after a downpour — and losing herself in fab speculative-fiction media. Her debut novel The Light at the Bottom of the World is the first book in the Light The Abyss duology from Little, Brown. The sequel Journey to the Heart of the Abyss published in November 2021 and the series is now complete.
