"Never have I before read such words to myself, words of such power and beautiful darkness-ones that express such longing, or such horror, evoking such imagery..."

"Kim Elizabeth is a majestic presence, with a refined and unique writing style that is all her own. She has got a transcendent and deeply disturbing morbid element that likens to the genius of Poe and the mystique and terror of Lovecraft, all the while illuminating her Hadean darkness with the poetic profoundness and sheer beauty of Keats..."

Kim Elizabeth was born in New York City in 1978. She started writing poetry when she was just 4 years old. That was the same time her musical background began. The not yet kindergarten aged Elizabeth had a love of classical music - piano and violin - as well as her poetry. The Swedish Covergirl started modeling as a small child and when Kim was just 12 years old she became a published writer. Her first poetry book was published when she was still just a kid, and overseas in boarding school. The young author emerged onto the writing scene as a teenager exhibiting her extraordinary talent with her first book, MYSTICAL EYES, published overseas. Noted reviewer for the UK Press, Richard Ball, stated, in her very first book review, "The elusive images of darkness and strangeness come through eerily;

I sense Edgar Allan Poe's genius in her poetry ... beyond. This young lady is going to go very far."

Along with her poetry and prose, Kim has a diverse and eclectic background in classical music, violin and piano, modern dance, ballet, gymnastics, English literature and quantum physics. Elizabeth's literary work ranges through a wide spectrum which embraces horror, deeply of metaphysical as well as psychological-terror ex anima-nature, dark fantasy, vampirism, gothic lure, necromancy, mysticism/cabalistic transmutations, paranormal phenomenon, theoretical physics/hyperspace, astronomy/cosmos/nature, spirituality/new age, science fiction, mythology, social/humanistic works and comedy, much of which is dark and satirical, unorthodox and definitely offbeat.

Kim Elizabeth is the author of NETHERWORLD, MYSTICAL EYES, IMMORTAL HEARTBEAT and FROM THE SHADOWS, as well as her illustrated series, DARK WORLD and INTO THE NIGHT. Kim Elizabeth's stories, poems and special features have appeared in hundreds of publications, and the haunting presence of her work has garnered her an incredible following throughout the world. A successful and multitalented writer, poet, artist, model and musician since age 16, in just a few years the young author has become a mainstay of dark fantasy literature.

Haunting and atmospheric, Elizabeth masterfully weaves her web of sublime enchantment and merciless horror, leaving you out of breath, heart pounding, and desperately needing more. Chilling, mysterious and unearthly, Kim Elizabeth is the stuff in which the most memorable dreams and nightmares are made of. Stories and poems such as Blood Princess, Boxed Elysian Fields, Esprit de Corps, 13 O'clock, Moon Time, Necromancer, Black X's, Hell Hath No Fury..., Exurgent Mortui et ad Me Veniunt, The Dead Rise and Come to Me, Beyond the Crossing of Erebus, Dream Crypt, The Impaling Game and Funeral Flowers, just to name a few from the myriad of her creations.

With countless accolades, this phenomenal writer never ceases to tantalize and captivate readers, bewitching them into her strangely beautiful, yet concurrently horrifying, world of dark grace. "A world from which," as one of the many inspired quotes go, "you will not want to return..." -Myke Hideous, Lead singer/guitarist, The Empire Hideous
