Meet the Author: "Welcome to my Amazon author page. It's strange to think that when I wrote my first book, there was no Amazon - in fact there was no internet, no computers. That doesn't make me particularly old. It just shows how quickly times have moved. In fact I wrote my first book when I was ten, stuck in a miserable, north London boarding school where reading and telling stories were my only lifeline.

Cut forward to the present and now I have over forty-five published novels to my name. The game changer for me was Stormbreaker , the first Alex Rider adventure, published in 2000. There were eleven more books in the series - the latest, Never Say Die , was published in 2017 - and they are now being developed for TV. I have plenty of other children's books out there - I wa...
