Caroline Karnatz | Author & Ecologist

Caroline is a Montana-based ecologist and author (and, yes, those are wolves). Her scholarly work focuses on the power of biodiversity to prevent the spread and spillover of wildlife diseases while her creative writing draws from her experiences as ecologist to imbue her fiction with meaning.

Caroline writes fantasy as you’ve never experienced it. She sees the world through an ecological lens, fusing ecology and high fantasy into immersive, cutthroat secondary worlds where human wit and raw nature drive survival. The interconnectedness of natural resources, exploitation, government regimes, power, community, and resistance take center stage in stories that are ultimately about shared humanity.
