N M Browne has never been a wolf, fox, eagle or dragon except in her books, which are often about transformations and always about courage.
There is no triumph without hardship, no adventure without peril and her books are full of all of them.
She has been twice nominated for the Carnegie medal, and a Locus Award as well as numerous regional awards.
She has a Phd in Creative Writing, teaches, mentors and advises on other writers' manuscripts. She believes that the stories we tell ourselves change the world - so we'd better tell ourselves the best ones.
..terrific new YA dystopia.Browne's 'Warriors of Alavna' the best time-travel novel ever, but her watery Mad Max adventure equally thrilling for 11+.She's the real thing.' Amanda Craig reviewer New Statesman.
