Iryna Bennett was born in the Ukraine and shuffled through her reasonably conventional formative years with her head buried in books. By the time adolescence rolled around and the scenery settled in around her, she was pleasantly surprised to find herself fresh out of college and residing in Texas. When not writing or being brilliant at her day job, Iryna spends any spare time left over from wardrobe crises taking target practice and adopting felines. Whoever Fights Monsters is her first novel.
