Veronica G. Henry

Veronica G. Henry is an author known for the Mambo Reina series, urban fantasy centered on a Vodou priestess, or mambo, devoted to the spirit Erzulie, blending New Orleans-rooted Haitian Vodou tradition with contemporary supernatural mystery. Her writing draws directly and respectfully on Vodou religious practice and cosmology rather than treating it as generic horror set-dressing, a distinguishing feature noted in discussions of the tradition's portrayal in popular fiction. Beyond the Mambo Reina books, her catalogued work extends into climate-inflected speculative fiction with The Scorched Earth sequence. Limited further biographical detail about Henry is publicly documented beyond her published bibliography.
