Welcome to the website of Ju Honisch. I write novels, short stories, poems and songs in both English and German.
I have never liked or indeed strictly adhered to sub-genre definitions, but for what it’s worth here is a list of my publications by genre.
Historical Fantasy / Steampunk (English versions)
- Obsidian Secrets – The German version won the German Fantasy Award (Deutscher Phantastik Preis – comparable to HUGO) in 2009
- Dreams of Salt Vol. 1
- Dreams of Salt Vol. 2
- Beyond the Merry-Go-Round – reached the final ballot of the German Fantasy Award (Deutscher Phantastik Preis)

I like exitement and thrill. I love black humour. And what I like is what you get.
