Eleanor Flint

Eleanor Flint crafts immersive worlds where clockwork meets courage and alchemy dances with rebellion. With a background in historical research and a lifelong passion for speculative fiction, Flint infuses her stories with richly layered character, imaginative technology, and the quiet strength of unlikely heroes.

Her debut novel, The Alchemist of Al-Qahirah, introduced readers to a steam-powered Cairo caught between empire and resistance, where an exiled alchemist races against time to clear his family's name and stop a reality-bending conspiracy. With lyrical prose and intricate worldbuilding, the novel drew praise for its blend of mysticism, steampunk, and political intrigue.

Flint's follow-up, The Widow's Zeppelin, follows a grieving seamstress turned skyship captain as she inherits a sentient airship and uncovers a world-shaking conspiracy. Set among the floating cities of Atheria, it's a tale of aerial battles, arcane technology, and the transformation of grief into fierce purpose.

When she's not writing, Eleanor can be found in dusty libraries, dreaming up alternate histories, or tinkering with antique typewriters. She writes for readers who believe the smallest spark can ignite a revolution-and that even the quietest protagonist can command the sky.
