Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff are the co-authors of The Illuminae Files, a YA sci-fi space opera trilogy like nothing you have seen before (literally, The Illuminae Files reinvents what YA fiction can look like).

Illuminae (the first in the trilogy) topped the New York Times best seller list, and won both the 2016 Inky Award and the Australian Book Industry Awards (Book of the Year for Older Children). Gemina, the second in the trilogy, debuted at #3 on the New York Times in October 2016.

Both Amie and Jay have published other successful YA trilogies. Amie is the co-author of The Starbound Trilogy (with Megan Spooner), and Jay is the author of The Lotus War trilogy, as well as the new Nevernight Chronicles.
