The Hyena

Coming soon from Emmy Award winner David Quantick, exclusively via Stars and Sabers Publishing.

The Hyena is the story of Deborah Parkinson, the greatest artist you never heard of. Artist, lover, mother, friend–but never muse–Deborah is a woman whose story spans cities and continents, legends and geniuses.

From Paris to New York and from Kahlo to Dali,  this is the story of a woman who didn’t fit in… and liked it that way.

Preorder links forthcoming.

“The Hyena is a surreal and playful journey from Plymouth to Paris to Mexico and back, asking questions about feminism, identity, who gets to be a muse, and who gets to be an artist. Witty, wise, and joyful – I loved this book.”

—Una McCormack, New York Times bestselling author of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine – The Peacemakers


“THE HYENA is a mind-bending alt-version of our world on the other side of a thin veil! Mysterious, twisty, and utterly fascinating! This one will take your brain on a long, strange trip!”

— Jonathan Maberry, New York Times bestselling author of Red Empire and Ghosts of the Void


“The Hyena takes us on a surreal journey through questions of identity and reality and the nature of art and creativity.”

— Ruth Frances Long, author of The Feral Gods trilogy


“Deborah is a delightfully quirky character, full of mordant whimsy and burning wit.”

— J.L. Worrad, author of Pennyblade and The Keep Within
