Amy Maltman

Amy Maltman’s first novel, Ride Every Stride, reached #1 on Amazon charts around the world. Born and raised in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, Amy grew up obsessed with animals and Star Wars. Not much has changed.

A graduate of the Universities of Guelph and Toronto, Amy is now a disabled pharmacist with syringomyelia, a rare spinal cord disorder. She enjoys spending time with her menagerie of pets (which is never large enough), watching too much TV and too many movies (including Star Wars, Supernatural, and True Blood marathons), reading, and collecting Funko Pops. She channeled this love of fantasy into her Daughter of Venus trilogy, which she fantasizes about seeing adapted for the screen.

Amy is passionate about animal rights and the environment and dreams of opening a farm animal sanctuary. Boomerang Farm and Sanctuary would be named in honour of her golden retriever, Boomer, who died suddenly from cancer.

She once met Alexander Skarsgård and it was the best day of her life.
