Frances Hardinge

Represented by Molly Ker Hawn

Frances Hardinge is the author of ten fantasy books for children and young adults, all of them dark, weird and critically acclaimed, including THE LIE TREE, FLY BY NIGHT and the latest, UNRAVELLER. She was brought up in a sequence of small, sinister English villages, which probably explains a lot. Her novels have won a range of prizes, including the Costa Book Award, the YA category of the LA Times Book Prizes, the British Fantasy Awards’ Robert Holdstock Award for Best Fantasy Novel, the British Science Fiction Award for Best Book for Younger Readers, The Boston Globe/Horn Book Fiction Award, the Dracula Society’s Children of the Night Award, the UKLA Book Awards (12-16 category) and the Branford Boase Award. Frances is also a member of the Royal Society of Literature and has been shortlisted for the Carnegie Medal three times. She is seldom seen without her hat, and is addicted to volcanoes.
