Aisling Fowler

Aisling Fowler talks about flashbacks, monsters, how a video game inspired the story of 'Fireborn', and more

About The Author:

Aisling Fowler wishes that she had grown up in a magical, mountainous kingdom, but was actually raised in Surrey on a diet of books and Buffy the Vampire Slayer. After earning a BSc in Biology and working as a support worker and then a nurse, the idea for FIREBORN came to her as she moved back and forth between London and the US. When she is not reading or writing, Aisling loves cooking and plotting adventures (for herself as well as her fictional characters).

 

About The Book:

Twelve has spoken the Pledge and now she is a Huntling. She has given up her name to train in the art of fighting monsters, and she won’t choose a new one until she has earned it. But when her friend is taken, Twelve sets off on a dangerous journey to rescue her. Teaming up with Dog, the stone Guardian of the Hunting Lodge, Twelve ends up on an epic adventure that will change her life, her name – and her entire world.
