Finn Longman is an author and medievalist, originally from London. They write young adult and adult fiction, with a particular interest in genre-bending stories about identity, friendship, and monstrosity – of the metaphorical or the literal sort. They've spent most of their adult life either working as a library assistant or studying for increasingly niche degrees in medieval literature, but when they don't have their head in a book they can usually be found playing folk music in a local pub.

Finn is currently a PhD student at the University of Cambridge, researching friendship and affection in the later Ulster Cycle.
