"There are two kinds of great fantasy: the "important" kind, where you dutifully turn the pages in awe of the writer's talent and mastery of prose, and the "guilty pleasure" kind, where you breathlessly whip through the book, transported to some truly magical world and determined to find out what happens next. But every now and then, you come upon a story that does both. Amaranth is one such story, and its author, Julie Berry, is definitely one to watch. This won't be the last time we hear from this exceptional new talent."
-- Brent Hartinger, author of Dreamquest and Geography Club |

| I graduated from Vermont College's MFA in writing for children program in January 2008. I write middle grade and young adult fiction, including fantasy. I also write a humor column for a suburban Boston newspaper. My writing is represented by Trident Media Group. My first novel, The Amaranth Enchantment, won the 2007 Vermont College Program Scholarship (formerly the Houghton Mifflin Prize). I live near Boston with my husband and four young sons. | |
