Notă biografică

Oliver Eade, awoke early one morning with a ghost story in his head. He got up, wrote it down and went back to sleep. The following day he was horrified to see how badly written it was. A month later another story appeared and he spent more time with it. Then another and another...he's now written over a hundred, of which more than fifty have been published. He is particularly fond of that magical space between reality and fantasy, into and out of which children slip so easily. His debut young reader's novel, Moon Rabbit (Delancey Press, 2009), links Scotland with mythological China (Oliver's wife is Chinese) through the friendship of two children and was a winner of the Writers' And Artists' 207 New Novel Competition and long-listed for the Waterstones Children's Book Prize of 2008. The sequel, Monkey King's Revenge, came out in 2011. A dark fantasy set in North America, Northwards, was published in 2010. Moon Rabbit was a winner of a Writers and Artists' Yearbook New Novel Competition and long-listed for the Waterstone's Children's Book Prize. Monkey King's Revenge is a finalist for the children's section of The People's Book Prize, 2012. Oliver also writes for teenagers and adults and had a play staged in Scotland in 2012. His first adult novel, A Single Petal, won the 2012 Local Legend Spiritual Writing Competition. Before a ghost story changed his life, his daytime job was being a hospital doctor.
