Über den Autor
Katherine Roberts grew up in the south west of England, where her first fantasy stories were told to her little brother at bedtime. She graduated in mathematics from the University of Bath, after which she worked with computers. When redundancy struck in 1989, she fulfilled a childhood dream of working with horses in a racing yard, writing short stories in her spare time. Her first novel Song Quest won the 2000 Branford Boase Award, kick-starting her career as an author. Her books have been published by HarperCollins, Chicken House and Scholastic US, and translated into 12 languages worldwide - one of them even hit the bestseller list in Taiwan.Away from her computer, Katherine enjoys folk music, cycling, skiing, and horse riding. She has flown a glider solo and scared herself doing aerobatics in a small plane. All of these experiences eventually find their way into her books - though sometimes the horse becomes a unicorn, and the plane becomes a dragon!
