Sarah A. Hoyt is an author who also writes under the names Sarah D'Almeida and Elise Hyatt.

Biography

Hoyt was born on November 18, 1962 in the village of Granja, Águas Santas, Maia[1] and grew up in Porto, Portugal[2]. Educated in both Portugal and the United States, she graduated from University of Porto, with a Master's equivalent in Modern Languages and Literatures with a major in English and a minor in German. She also speaks Swedish, Italian and French, with varying degrees of fluency. Married in 1985 to Dan Hoyt (a science fiction author and mathematician[3]), she has two teenaged sons. She became a United States citizen in 1988 in Charlotte, North Carolina[4]. As of 2016, she lives in Colorado.[5]

Writing

Hoyt has described her writing as "no genre is safe from me." She has published more than 30 novels in science fiction, fantasy, mystery, and historical[6]. The first book in her Shakespearean fantasy series, Ill Met by Moonlight was a finalist for the 2002 Mythopoeic Fantasy Award.[7].

Her Musketeers series[8] begins with Death of a Musketeer, a Mystery Book Club selection and includes three other titles from Berkley Prime Crime[9].

Her favorite genre, however, remains science fiction[10], and Hoyt is a prolific writer whose short stories have been published in Analog, Asimov’s, Weird Tales, and a number of anthologies from DAW and Baen[11]. Her shapeshifter series[12] include Draw One in the Dark and Gentleman Takes a Chance, urban fantasy adventures[13], from Baen Books. Also from Baen Books is her Darkship series beginning with Darkship Thieves, winner of the Prometheus Award for libertarian science fiction[14].

The British Empire series[15] takes place in a parallel world, where history from Charlemagne to Queen Victoria parallels ours but is actuated through the workings of magic and not by science and technology. The series consists of three books: Heart of Light, which takes place in Victorian Africa; Soul of Fire, which unfolds in India; and Heart and Soul, which enmeshes itself in the chaos of 19th century China.

Under the house name Laurien Gardner, she has written Plain Jane for Jove Books Historical Fiction. She also edited the anthology Something Magic This Way Comes.

She has also written a series of mysteries centered on furniture refinishing under the pen name of Elise Hyatt. These stories are set in the same city of Goldport, Colorado as her shifter series, with some characters appearing in both series.

Her novel "Uncharted" with Kevin J. Anderson won the Dragon Awards for Best Alternate History Novel in 2018[16]. A review in Locus[17] described it as "filled with not only slambang adventures but also a kind of rational optimism that has become rare in genre works these days."

More recently, she was featured on a podcast, The Future and You[18]. Produced by Stephen Euin Cobb, the show featured Sarah de Almeida Hoyt, David Drake, Alan Dean Foster, Travis Taylor, and Stephen L Antczak. She was "Guest of Honor" at the 2019 LibertyCon. [19]

Sarah Hoyt is an online columnist at PJ media. [20]
