“riveting and unpredictable”

—Under the Radar SFF Books

Hi, I’m Delilah Waan!

I’m a Hong Kong born Chinese-Australian author based in Sydney and I write character-driven adult epic fantasy.

My debut novel, Petition, is about an angry Asian daughter of impoverished immigrants fighting privileged rich kids in a ruthless job hunt tournament.

The sequel, Supplicant, is about her first day on the job: sailing across the high seas, beyond the edge of the world, to steal a heavenly artifact.

My Kickstarter project to celebrate the launch of Supplicant successfully funded in 9 minutes and ended up funding at over $15,000 AUD!

Missed out on backing the Supplicant Kickstarter?

Don’t worry; you can still get your hands on these gorgeous special edition hardcovers exclusively through my website.
