Notă biografică
Shameez Patel Papathanasiou was born and raised in Cape Town, South Africa. She lives there with her husband, child and two cats named Turbo and Charger. During the day she juggles her time between singing Baby Shark to her daughter and working as a civil engineer where she designs roads and analyses traffic, but at night she writes fantasy worlds with magic, monsters and someone to fall in love with.
She considers herself a professional binge-watcher and fangirl. Don’t be surprised to bump into her dressed as a Hobbit or Lady Loki. Should you need anything from her, offer a choc-chip cookie and her heart is yours forever.
Shameez fell in love with fiction, especially fantasy fiction at a young age. Her parents fondly recall receiving her first handwritten story before the age of ten, titled The Treasures of Zombie Island, which surprisingly featured no zombies at all. She has been writing ever since.
Her fantasy novel, The Last Feather is set to be published in 2022 by Flame Tree Press – it, at the very least, features a feather.

Reader Reviews for The First King (#3 in The Selene Trilogy)
It's hard to accept that we have to say goodbye to Selene but this was so well done and satisfying that it hurts just a little bit less. I love how Shameez had us falling in love with almost every character and every moment, has you crossing your fingers that they will make it through safely.
I rarely find the ending of a fantasy trilogy to be completely satisfying, but this story absolutely was. There was action, hope, tragedy, twists, and love in all its forms at centre stage. The stakes that have been raised with each book in this series reach their peak, and the looming war is as thrilling as I'd hoped for. The ending was unpredictable and satisfying, while still being heartbreaking and hopeful. I'd read a spin off series for every character, I can't get enough of them.
The Selene trilogy is truly one of my all-time favourite series.
Words cannot express how much I loved this book. [...] The author has crafted memorable side characters with each one adding depth to the story.
Reviews for The Last Feather (#1 in The Selene Trilogy)
Papathanasiou debuts and launches the Selene Trilogy with a fierce, appealing story of determination, magical spells, and the bonds of friendship. [Her] talent for writing resolute characters makes her diverse cast sing, and she infuses Cassia’s adventure with emotion. This enchanting portal fantasy will have readers hooked.
Teen readers will enjoy this tale of a stubborn, clever heroine mixed up with court politics, magic, and a hint of romance.
Fans of Catherynne M. Valente’s Fairyland series will find a heroine of similar stubbornness, cleverness, and loyalty in a grown-up setting, while Sarah J. Maas or Laurell K. Hamilton enthusiasts will enjoy the fantasy politics, magic, and hints of romance.
