Parker is an international bestselling author who grew up on a farm in New Zealand, where she spent her days getting lost amongst the rolling pasture, building forts in the hedge, climbing trees, and exploring the forest pathways - making up elaborate stories that never lost their grip on her. She now lives in Australia with her husband, dog, three children, and countless plants, and spends her days pouring her stories onto paper rather than throwing them to the wind. Her genre of choice is epic fantasy romance, and she thrives off dreaming up real, complex characters and immersive worlds to get lost amongst.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFantasy, Romance, Traditional stories - myths and fairy tales\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePaperback, 464 pages\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eH: 234mm W: 153mm Spine: 38mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWeight: 560 grams\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HarperVoyager","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46375216349334,"sku":"9780008786328","price":36.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0587\/4978\/0118\/files\/jacket-2026-05-07T115936-665.jpg?v=1778112080","url":"https:\/\/www.tawabooksandpost.co.nz\/products\/to-snap-a-silver-stem","provider":"Tawa Books \u0026 Post","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
