Megan Scott

Bestselling novelist of romance and fantasy

Megan’s debut upper YA novel, The Temptation of Magic, was an immediate Sunday Times Bestseller, has seen success in US, Australia, Canada and France, and will soon be released in Spain, Portugal and Czechia. Her next books will also feature Celtic myth and romance in adult Romantasy.

Megan’s first novel, The Temptation of Magic, published by HarperCollins, is the first in the Empyreal trilogy and is filled with mythology, the supernatural, and romance. The debut was a Fairyloot YA May book pick, a Dymocks book of the month in Australia, and the Canadian Bookstore Indigo named it as one of their best books of 2024. It has had three special editions, and a post gushing about the book on BookTok has had over 1.2 million views. Megan’s interest in myth is heavily inspired by her degree in Art History and Classical Civilisation at St. Andrews University, and writing her distinction-awarded Masters of Research dissertation on depictions of myth in nineteenth century art. When she’s not writing, she’s trying to read as much as her nana, paint Old Masters paintings, and learn as much as she can about her family’s Irish history.

Megan is currently working on her next books, including the next installment of the Empyreal trilogy, A Masterpiece in Blood.
