CARL ASHMORE
Author of children's/MG/YA fiction
About me
I'm an independent author from Crewe, Cheshire, and am the author of the ‘Time Hunters’ series. I wrote the first draft of ‘The Time Hunters’ in 2005 when I took a year’s sabbatical from my job as a media lecturer to live in the South West of France.
I’m delighted with the success the Time Hunters series has received. Not only has the series sold better than I could've hoped across the world, but the reviews have been overwhelming. The translation rights for the series have been sold to Brazil, Russia and France.
I am currently writing the final Time Hunters novel: 'The Time Hunters and the Eden Crown'. I am also writing a second book to be released in 2025 - 'Alice Mason and the Grand Wizardess.' Nine years ago, I made a promise to my daughter, Alice, when she was six and a huge Harry Potter fan, that I would write a magical series with a girl named 'Alice' as the heroine. It's time I fulfilled that promise - she's now 15.
​
I live in Nantwich, with my fiancé, Lisa, Alice, and my son, Will.
I like Naan breads, blob fish, and old movies.
