Iris de Vree resides in Bierbeek, Belgium, with her boyfriend and their two loyal golden retrievers, Milo and Teddie. Their adventurous lifestyle is fueled by her boyfriend’s semi-professional poker career, which takes them on exciting journeys around the globe. Each new destination serves as inspiration for the thrilling fantasy realms Iris creates in her books. Her love for storytelling began at a young age and has been a constant companion throughout her life. While pursuing a degree in journalism, she realized that her true passion lay in crafting fantastical narratives rather than reporting facts. Now, at thirty-two, she has fulfilled a lifelong dream: seeing her own book on the shelf alongside the authors who inspired her. But her journey doesn’t end there—she hopes to one day read her stories aloud to young readers across the world, bringing her fantasy worlds to life beyond the page.
