Yvette Hazebroek is a versatile Dutch author who creates immersive worlds for both children and young adult readers. She made her debut in 2018 with the children’s book Bay en de Piraenauten, a thrilling adventure filled with flying cities, airships, sky pirates, superstorms, and hidden secrets. Her love for steampunk shines through, giving her imagination endless room to craft daring heroes, imaginative gadgets, and high-stakes escapades. Modern Myths even noted, “Fans of Pirates of the Caribbean will love this book too.”
With her latest project, The Cursed Island Series, Yvette takes readers into a darker, more magical world, perfect for slightly older audiences. The series is packed with danger, mystery, and unexpected alliances. The first installment, Indigo – Master of the Currents, debuted in 2024, followed by Ellian – Queen of Fire in 2025, with the third book and a new children’s story on the horizon.
Yvette’s stories captivate readers of all ages, blending rich world-building, unforgettable characters, and suspenseful plots that keep pages turning. “I love taking readers into entirely new worlds,” she says. “When they lose themselves in the story and start caring about the characters, that’s when I’m happiest as a writer.”
