Matrika Hay

Being adopted at the age of only four months, she spent the first few years of her life on the military base in Kawaii, before her mother and brother moved to the base in Tucson. It was there she fell in love with theatre. That love expanded to singing, film, podcasting, stage combat and stunt work. She’s always loved the stories and adventures that accompany the world of entertainment and has taken on the next level of the journey; by penning her own novels.

“All the worlds a stage, and all the men and women merely players.”

William Shakespeare

What People are Saying

  • "Author Matrika Hay has crafted a superb adventure novel with plenty of mythology, mystery, and magic to flavor its historical atmosphere. One of the things that I really enjoyed about this novel was the suspense created by mistrust and not knowing who was suddenly going to expound yet more secrets and scandals to complicate the plot. This keeps readers on their toes, and we get really invested in Antosha's safety when she's trying to make connections or rely on other people, deepening our bond with our hero. I also really liked the way that the plot was exposed by dialogue and discovery without the need for huge chunks of prose or backstory, which gave the tale a better flow and made it feel like a quick-paced yet fully immersive read.

  • "This is a solid, meaty read but the author's use of multiple perspectives throughout the narrative, the clever plot twists, and the appealing characters will ensure the reader is constantly turning pages to discover what happens next. For the adrenaline junkie, there are plenty of well-described and frantic battles between many of the characters by these are interspersed with thought-provoking and contemplative periods, which all give the story excellent balance."

    Grant Leishamn, Readers Favorites

  • "It's elegant and mature and well-suited for readers who are more inclined toward classic, sophisticated storytelling. I joked with my husband that this is what Jane Austen would have written if she had been a fantasy author, especially since Antosha has the maturity of Fanny Price and the ultra-clever precociousness of Catherine Morland. Some of the scenes are beautifully haunting and have a gothic feel to them."

    Jamie Michele, Readers Favorites

  • "I loved the dialogue between the characters. It was organic and rather humorous at times. The book had a very cinematic feel; it was as if it was written specifically to be adapted into a movie. There were a lot of plot reveals that caught me unaware, which I liked."
