Life and education

Roux was born in Minnesota.[1] Roux attended Beloit College, where she studied creative writing and acting and graduated with a bachelor's degree in 2008.[1]

Career

Novels

Roux became known for her zombie fiction blog, Allison Hewitt Is Trapped, which she turned into her first novel by the same name.[2] Asylum, a 2013 young adult horror novel and first installment in the series of the same name, was a New York Times bestseller.[3][4]

Her next young adult trilogy began with House of Furies in 2017.[5][6] Kate McKean, in a review of the novel for Publishers Weekly, wrote that Roux "brings her gothic setting to rich life in this darkly delightful (and frequently gruesome) series opener".[5] In February 2022, the Oklahoma attorney general's office announced a list of school library books, which included House of Furies, that they were reviewing for alleged obscenity.[7] However, Attorney General John O'Connor walked back the probe within the day.[8][9]

Both of her adult science fiction thriller and mystery novels – Salvaged (2019) and Reclaimed (2021) – received starred reviews from Publishers Weekly.[10][11][12] Paste stated that Salvaged "is not for the faint of heart" and that "there are few worse ways to go out than what Roux has imagined for humanity in Salvaged".[13]

In March 2022, Roux published the young adult horror novel The Book of Living Secrets.[14][15] The Proposition, a Regency romance novel by Roux, is scheduled to be published in August 2022.[16] In June 2022, it was announced that Quill Tree Books had acquired Now We Hunt the Doe, a young adult fantasy novel by Roux, along with an additional untitled novel. Now We Hunt the Doe is scheduled to be published in 2024.[17]

Licensed properties

Roux contributed the short story "Eclipse" to From a Certain Point of View, a 2017 anthology of stories in the Star Wars universe.[18] Jennifer Roy, for CBR, commented that Roux's contribution "was the most devastating story in the collection because it showed Alderaan's fate from the point of view of Queen Breha Organa. [...] 'Eclipse' compounded the tragedy of Alderaan and made Leia's loss even more visceral".[19]

Roux wrote two World of Warcraft novels, as well as the short story "A Moment In Verse".[20][21] Shadows Rising, her second novel set in the Warcraft universe, was among Publishers Weekly bestsellers in July 2020.[22] Roux is the author of the Dungeon Academy series, with illustrator Timothy Probert, which is a set of Dungeons & Dragons themed middle grade books;[23][24] the second novel is scheduled for release in November 2022.[25] A novel featuring characters from the series, titled Dungeons & Dragons: A Goblin Problem (2022), was published under Roux's pen name Diane Walker.[26][27]

Roux is the author of a prequel novel, titled Critical Role: The Mighty Nein – The Nine Eyes of Lucien, set before Critical Role's second campaign;[28][29] it was released in November 2022.[30][31]
