About the Author:

Anthony Horowitz was born in 1955 and sent to Orley Farm, a particularly vicious boy's preparatory school in North London, which gave him his first taste of horror. Afterwards he went to Rugby School and York University. He is probably known as a screen writer and his work includes Foyle's War, Murder in Mind, Midsomer Murders, Menace and Agatha Christie's Poirot. "I've always liked horror," Anthony says. "I love those dark things that are always just out of sight ... in the corner of your eye." But he is equally at ease with comedy, thrillers and even spy fantasies ... his Alex Rider series has enjoyed worldwide success. All in all, he has written over twenty books for children. For Orchard Books Anthony has written Horowitz Horror and More Horowitz Horror, two collection of scary short stories that will make your spine tingle! The stories are also available individually as Pocket Horowitz paperbacks. Anthony lives in North London with his wife and two sons, Nicholas and Cassian.
