Bec

"I was born in London in 1972 and moved to Ireland when I was 6 years old, where I've lived ever since. I always wanted to be a writer - I've loved telling stories since I was a child. I started out writing books for adults, and managed to get a couple published. One day, on a whim, I decided to try a book for children. The result was Cirque Du Freak. Much to my surprise, it took off, and I became a de facto children's author! Since then I've used my ill-gotten gains to buy lots of comic-strip art and travel the world. When I'm not working or traveling, I like watching movies. I've even been known to read the odd book or two." - Darren Shan Darren is currently working on his seventh novel in his bonechilling Demonata series, coming in November 2008.Shan, Darren is the author of 'Bec', published 2008 under ISBN 9780316013901 and ISBN 0316013900.
