Ken Mann

Ken Mann (1971- ) was born in Woolloomooloo, Sydney Australia. Adopted at birth, he moved at age 5 with his family from Punchbowl in Sydney's south-west to Queensland's sunny Gold Coast. Ken has been a passionate writer since he was 13. Originally a student of poetry, he has built an impressive collection of verse. Many of which have been published individually with one attaining high acclaim in the US in 2006 from Poetry.com. It was at that time when he read his first Charles De Lint novel and became a passionate devotee of the Urban Fantasy genre.

He released his first novel, “The Black Locust” in March 2015 to positive reviews. This is the first in an anticipated six book series “The Wiccan Tales.” He incorporates many real life passions into his writing which includes poetry, VW Beetles, 80’s English post-punk/gothic music, Celtic/Gaelic mythology and modern witchcraft (Wicca).

His style of writing, engaging characters and whimsical transitions from real world to the ancient faerie will take you on a journey you will never forget.
