Краткая биография автора
Hi! My name is Erin Bow — physicist turned poet turned author of young adult novels that will make you cry on the bus. I'm a white girl, forty-something, feminist, geeky enough to do the Vulcan salute with both hands — in public. I live in Canada. I love to cook, hate to clean, and yes, I do own a cat. In the beginning, I was a city girl from farm country — born in Des Moines and raised in Omaha — where I was fond of tromping through wood lots and reading books by flashlight. In high school I c...
Hi! My name is Erin Bow — physicist turned poet turned author of young adult novels that will make you cry on the bus. I'm a white girl, forty-something, feminist, geeky enough to do the Vulcan salute with both hands — in public. I live in Canada. I love to cook, hate to clean, and yes, I do own a cat. In the beginning, I was a city girl from farm country — born in Des Moines and raised in Omaha — where I was fond of tromping through wood lots and reading books by flashlight. In high school I captained the debate team, founded the math club, and didn’t date much.In university I studied particle physics, and worked briefly at the European Centre for Nuclear Research (CERN) near Geneva, Switzerland. Physics was awesome, but graduate school kind of sucked, and at some point I remembered that I wanted to write books. Books: I have six of them — three novels, and two volumes of poetry and a memoir (the poetry under my maiden name, Erin Noteboom). My poetry has won the CBC Canadian Literary Award, and several other awards. My two novels, "Plain Kate" and "Sorrow's Knot", also have a fistful of awards, including Canada's top award for children's literature, the TD. The third novel, "The Scorpion Rules", still faces its award season. No one read the memoir. Right now I'm looking forward to the publication of my fourth novel, a companion piece to "The Scorpion Rules" called "The Swan Riders", which will be out September 20 from Simon&Schuster. I'm at work on an new an entirely different novel, and a book of poetry about science. Did you notice I got to Canada in there somewhere? Yeah, that was true love. I'm married to a Canadian boy, James Bow, who also writes young adult novels. We have two small daughters, both of whom want to be scientists.(по данным с официального сайта автора)

A debut novel that's as sharp as a knife's point. Plain Kate lives in a world of superstitions and curses, where a song can heal a wound and a shadow can work deep magic. As the wood-carver's daughter, Kate held a carving knife before a spoon, and her wooden charms are so fine that some even call her "witch-blade" -- a dangerous nickname in a town where witches are hunted and bur...

Like them, she is taught to obey ...
