Stuart Turton

Stuart lives in London with his amazing wife and two daughters. He drinks lots of tea.

What else?

When he left university he went travelling for three months and stayed away for five years. Every time his parents asked when he’d be back he told them next week, and meant it.

Stuart is not to be trusted. In the nicest possible way.

He’s got a degree in English and Philosophy, which makes him excellent at arguing and terrible at choosing degrees.

Having trained for no particular career, he has dabbled in most of them. He stocked shelves in a Darwin bookshop, taught English in Shanghai, worked for a technology magazine in London, wrote travel articles in Dubai, and now he’s a freelance journalist. None of this was planned, he just kept getting lo

Martin Jurík

Martin Jurík sa narodil v roku 1973 v Bratislave, jednu dekádu prežil v Nemecku, kde v roku 1997 vydal zbierku "surreálnych, čiastočne fantastických poviedok", ale ako vraví, na prvé miesto vždy kládol myšlienku a nie rámec diela. Pracoval aj ako novinár, no redaktorský chlebíček sa mu zdal príliš hektický, a tak sa uchýlil k pokojnejšej práci prekladateľa (predovšetkým z nemčiny), ktorou sa živí dodnes.
Na domácej pôde sa zviditeľnil až v roku 2011 debutovým polit-trilerom Kým nás smrť nerozdelí, nasledovalo pokračovanie Harlekýn a potom už sa kormidlo stočilo smer fantastika - bláznivá fantasy Škoricovník (Zlatá cesta) so spoluautorom Michalom Ružičkom a v roku 2014 steampunková alternatívna história pod názvom Projekt Zenta.

Judith O'Brien

Writing romance novels has got to be the way to make a living in the world. What other career allows you to send the kids off to school, walk the dog, and vanish into the most fascinating of historical times and places, with the most glorious of men, to escape danger and find everlasting love for the rest of the day?

Like most writers, I knew early on that I wanted to be a writer. Well, almost. Actually, writing was the third choice on my short list of career possibilities, right after Fairy Princess and Prima Ballerina. The first two didn't work out. So after college I moved to New York, where I worked for Seventeen Magazine. Not only had I never really been to New York before, but I believe I was the only editorial assistant in the magazin

Parts of his childhood were spent in Fort Wayne, Indiana, where his father's family was at the time, and in Stratford, Connecticut. When Stephen was eleven, his mother brought her children back to Durham, Maine, for good. Her parents, Guy and Nellie Pillsbury, had become incapacitated with old age, and Ruth King was persuaded by her sisters to take over the physical care of them.
