About the Author

Capes is the pseudonym of an anonymous author.Learn more about Capes by reading below, visiting their website capescreates.com, or following Capes on Instagram at capes.authorThe Decagon Series is an extrapolation and combination of Capes's favorite stories.Capes grew up loving YA Fantasy - this is the 'base' of the stories they tell, inspired by authors such as SJ Maas and V.E. Schwab. (Slow-burn romance! Improbable danger!)Next, Capes stirs in some literary style - think Toni Morrison and Gabriel Garcia Marquez. (Alluring words! Multi-dimensional characters!)Now for the secret spice: a sprinkle of dark, psychological complexity from visceral filmmakers such as Quentin Tarantino, and a little splash of atmosphere from filmmakers like Terrence Malick.Capes also borrows style and tone from music, like the experimental techno label NUXXE and the hip hop group Death Grips.
