Joshua Khan was born in Britain, a land filled with ancient castles, dark forests, and tales of legendary heroes and fantastical monsters. He can tell you who King Arthur fought on Baden Hill, but can't tell you what he himself had for breakfast. So, his head stuffed with magical stories, it was inevitable that Joshua would want to create some of his own. Hence the Shadow Magic series. Josh lives in London with his family, but he'd rather live in a castle. It wouldn't have to be very big, just as long as it had battlements. Follow him on Twitter: @WriterJoshKhan
PRAISE FOR SHADOW MAGIC "If you are pining for that thrill you felt
when you first discovered Harry Potter, let me recommend SHADOW
MAGIC. Here is a fantasy world you will lose yourself in--with Six
Great Families of magic, the nicest princess of darkness you've
ever met, a peasant boy with skills to rival Robin Hood, and a
supporting cast of zombies, paladins, ghost puppies, executioners,
minstrels, murderers, and a giant hero bat. I defy you not to love
this story."--Rick Riordan
PRAISE FOR SHADOW MAGIC "Zestful, dynamic and addictive, SHADOW
MAGIC is storytelling at its most exuberant. Joshua Khan sweeps you
up on the very first page and never lets you go. Close shaves, high
adventure, wild fantasy, and giant bats--this book has it all. I
haven't had this much fun in ages. Sit back and enjoy the
ride!"--Jonathan Stroud
"An executioner's apprentice, an embattled queen of shadows, and a
royal hostage join forces toward a common goal-survival in a
treacherous world of monsters and magic. SHADOW MAGIC is like the
best of haunted house adventures-a dark and twisty thrill ride with
just the right amount of creepy humor."--Cinda Williams Chima
"Great, in-depth, unusual world-building coupled with funny,
down-to-earth writing. Just call me Joshua Khan's number one
fan."--Sarah Rees Brennan
"There's plenty of magic to be found in SHADOW MAGIC--necromancy,
giant bats, ghosts!--but the real enchantment is the spell it
weaves around the reader. I'd battle a whole army of the dead just
to get to spend more time in Castle Gloom and the world Joshua Khan
has created."--Rachel Hawkins
