About the Author

Gigi Griffis

Gigi Griffis writes feminist historical fiction often featuring little-known histories and unruly female characters. She lives in Europe with an opinionated Yorkie mix named Luna, and spends her free time hiking the Alps, cycling around small villages, and eating as much French food as she can get her hands on. Her work has been featured in WestJet Magazine, Get Lost magazine, and Fodor’sTravel, among others, and has been translated into French, Italian, Portuguese, and Estonian. The Empress is Gigi’s adult novel debut.

2022

The companion novel to Netflix’s forthcoming new series, The Empress is a dazzling reimagining of the courtship between one of history’s most iconic and beloved couples: Sisi and Franz of Austria.
