Chris Wooding has already signed his first Hollywood film deal, been nominated for the Smarties award. He is the author of, amongst others, the Broken Sky series, The Haunting of Alaizabel Cray and The Braided Path trilogy. He studied English Literature at Sheffield. His Braided Path trilogy for Gollancz was a critical and international success.
Wooding's aptitude for world building is impressive, and he creates a mythical and magical place that is striking and involving. He is equally skilled in characterisation too and the world he has birthed is populated with a wealth of fascinating characters. Wooding keeps things moving quickly, sending the narrative flying by at knots. SCI FI NOW
