ABOUT THE AUTHOR: STEPHEN HUNT
Stephen Hunt is an author published around the
globe and best known for his popular fantasy and science
fiction novels.
His first six novels - the Jackelian series -
are published in the UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand
by HarperCollins alongside their other fantasy authors,
JRR Tolkien, CS Lewis and George RR Martin.
Stephen's novels are published in translation in countries
from regions ranging as far afield as Latin America, Europe and Asia.
The three blockbusters in Stephen most recent fantasy trilogy
- the Far-called series - came out from
the Gollancz imprint of Orion/Hachette group.
The success of one of his early fantasy novels, The
Court of the Air, helped kickstart a genre called 'steampunk',
which has since evolved into a thriving sub-culture with
its own conventions, gadgets and rather unique dress-sense.
Before becoming a full-time author, Stephen worked as a
journalist, editor and publisher for a range of media, including
the science journal Nature and the national newspaper The Financial Times.
