Skyler White (born 1967) is an American writer of fantasy and science fiction, including the novel The Incrementalists co-authored with Steven Brust.

[2] Among the writers who were her favorites or her greatest influences, White listed Ingri and Edgar Parin d'Aulaire, Rosemary Sutcliff, George Orwell, Anne Rice, Tom Robbins, Neil Gaiman, Emma Bull, Margaret Atwood and Steven Brust.

"[5] According to Publishers Weekly, the novel was "a trippy urban fantasy, an esoteric battle between myth and science told in floods of evocative prose.

"[4] In Dreams Begin, White's second novel, featured historical figures Maud Gonne and Irish poet William Butler Yeats as principal characters.

[1] The resulting story concerns love and conflict among several members of a secret society of 200 people known as Incrementalists, having an unbroken lineage of shared memories reaching back 40,000 years, and a seemingly modest mission: "to make the world better, a little bit at a time.

[11] The Winnipeg Free Press described it as "witty, sometimes cheeky,"[12] and Publishers Weekly called it a "philosophical and inventive urban fantasy," citing the cerebral appeal of its "layered mystery, innovative concept, and fast-moving plot.

"[13] Library Journal called it "an odd stepchild of magical realism, with hints of John Crowley, Tim Powers, and even a dash of Umberto Eco",[10] while the Daytona Beach News-Journal found the book most reminiscent of a Roger Zelazny novel.
