Scandinavian heritage and a patient Norwegian teacher stand behind S.T. Bende's young adult Norse fantasy: Elsker Saga, Ære Saga, Alfheim Academy, Viking Academy and Shieldmaiden Squadron all grew from them. A deep attachment to a galaxy far, far away led to children's books for the Star Wars franchise, and Star Wars Bestiary is the sixth series in the catalogue. Bende lived in Manhattan Beach and studied Shakespeare in Europe before settling in suburbia. The 22 books run from Elsker (2013) to Bookcessories: Star Wars: Tiny Book of Jedi (2026), with Endre, Tro and Tur all dated 2014.
