  • Garth Nix (b. 19th July, 1963) is an Australian author of fantasy and science-fiction novels, often for children or teenagers. Although Nix has created several well-known series of books for children, including The Keys to the Kingdom and The Seventh Tower, perhaps his most famous creation is the Old Kingdom series.
  • Australian author Garth Nix specializes in what's now called "Young Adult" fantasy--but don't let that throw you. He has the uncanny ability to take fantasy Cliche Storms and convert them into pure horror. Pray that his dark gift never reaches the people who write the "American Girls" books. He also is a big fan of Capital Letters Are Magic, and has a kind of awesome name. In addition to a few standalone novels (The Ragwitch, Shade's Children), he has several series out, including the Old Kingdom series, the Keys to the Kingdom heptalogy, and The Seventh Tower hexalogy.

Wednesday canbe a let down after Tuesday, but it was important when Garth served as a part-time soldier in the Australian Army Reserve, because that was training night. Thursday is now particually memorable because Garth and Anna's son, Thomas was born on a Thursday Afternoon. Friday is a very popular day for most people, but since Garth has become a full-time writer it has no longer marked the end of the working week. On any day, Garth may generally be found near Coogee Beach in Sydney, where he and his family live.
