Oliver Schlick

Oliver Schlick wurde 1964 in Neuwied geboren, lebt in Düsseldorf, mag Waldmeisterbrause und Pizza Funghi und schreibt Geschichten für Erwachsene, Kinder und Jugendliche. Seit 2015 hat er mehrere Kinder- und Jugendbücher veröffentlicht, darunter Miranda Lux – Denken heißt Zweifeln, das 2017 für den Deutsch-Französischen Jugendliteraturpreis nominiert war. Seine Geschichten zeichnen sich durch schräge Charaktere und das Aufeinandertreffen von realen und fantastischen Welten aus. Wenn er mal nicht schreibt (was selten vorkommt), widmet er seine Zeit dem Sammeln von Schneekugeln und Blechspielzeug – und dem exzessiven Hören von The Cure.

Phil Hickes

I live in Oregon at the moment, though I hail from the UK. Growing up in a house overlooking a graveyard, on the edge of the bleak and foreboding Pennine Hills, seems to have instilled in me an obsession with all things dark and spooky. The complete Aveline Jones trilogy is available at all good bookstores and has been, or will be, translated into Spanish, German, Czech, French, Turkish, Polish and Russian. My latest effort is called Shadowhall Academy and follows the spooky adventures of the Aunt Lilian character from the Aveline books as a young girl in the 1980s. I also have a dyslexia-friendly ghost story coming out with Barrington Stoke at Halloween this year.
