Fly By Night

Author Biography

Frances Hardinge spent her childhood in a huge, isolated old house on a hilltop in Kent that ‘wuthered’ when the wind blew and inspired her to write strange, magical stories from an early age. After leaving school she read English at Oxford University. Fly By Night, her first novel to be published, was immediately snapped up in several countries and has been shortlisted for a number of awards. Frances lives in Oxford.
