Deborah Wilde

Deborah Wilde writes urban fantasy known for blending humor with occult mythology, primarily drawing on Jewish folklore and mysticism. Her Nava Katz series, including The Unlikeable Demon Hunter novellas such as Crave, Need, and Sting, follows a reluctant demon hunter navigating family legacy and supernatural politics in Vancouver. Wilde's Magic After Midlife series shifts to an older protagonist discovering hidden power later in life, while Bedeviled AF and The Jezebel Files extend the focus on wisecracking, self-aware urban fantasy. The World of the Jezebel Files adds further linked titles to a shared setting. Wilde's work is distinguished by its comedic voice and grounding in Jewish mystical tradition within a genre often centered on Christian-derived demonology.
