About Amanda Schaar

Schaar's debut novel, The Storybook Coroner, has earned the coveted "Indie Book We Love" badge from the UK's most-trusted book reviewers. One of the few chosen from over 35k titles each year, LoveReading says, ​ "The Storybook Coroner is a romp through mythology, with a modern twist. This is a tale full of irreverent humour, with a broad cast of gods introduced, mysteries uncovered and grand rescue plans concocted. I recommend this book for an interesting and entertaining fantasy read." Produced plays include Rummy Starker Love Fest (sold out standing Os), Kill Socrates (nominated for every Arizoni award including best production), and Twelfth Night of the Living Dead, Or What You Kill (a critically-acclaimed, radically accessible and diverse production). Other published plays include Three Sisters (a Chekhov translation), Oggetto Metallico (Mussolini and the Pope are involved in the first alien coverup), and The Triumph of Moriarty (a live radio play wherein Moriarty devises the “fatal” episode at Reichenbach Falls). As a writer for corporations as well, Schaar has enjoyed success on behalf of her professional growth, and that of her clients including TECHNICOLOR, Dolby, Hearst Media, U.S. Bank, Siemens, Nasdaq, Harvard, Peet’s Coffee, Gartner, and World Wide Technologies (Intel).
