Jamie Littler (Author, Illustrator)
Jamie Littler is one of the UK's bestselling and most beloved
children's author-illustrators, whose work has been translated
around the world. His debut novel, Frostheart, was an instant
bestseller and nominated for the prestigious Branford Boase award,
which he followed with the equally ambitious and exciting new
series Arkspire. Jamie's previous illustration work includes Hamish
and the Worldstoppers which was the bestselling children's debut of
2015, and Wilf the Mighty Worrier, shortlisted for the Laugh Out
Loud Book Awards.
When not trying to tame his unnaturally fast growing hair or having
staring matches with next door's cat, he likes drawing, colouring
in, cutting things out and sticking things in. He lives in
Brighton.
Arkspire is a triumph - Mortal Engines meets Lockwood & Co. An
endlessly imaginative world, explored through perfectly drawn
heroines I adored. The magic is mesmerising, the humour masterful
and the adventure magnificent. Jamie, you absolute genius!
*A. F. Steadman, bestselling author of Skandar and the Unicorn
Thief*
Jamie Littler has created a masterful adventure, teeming with
fabulous characters, eerie monsters and ancient mystery. Text and
art both crackle with marvellous invention. If you like incredible
cityscapes, break-neck thrills, sassy heroines and irritable
shadow-demons (and hey, who DOESN'T love all that?), Arkspire is
the book for you.
*Jonathan Stroud, author of Lockwood & Co.*
Praise for Frostheart: Littler is an expert at pushing reluctant
readers from one chapter to the next via strategic cliffhangers and
this freezing world should warm the hearts of young readers
*The Times*
Littler's debut is wild, funny, lavishly illustrated and filled
with excitement.
*Guardian*
A heart-stopping tale ... [that] really lives up to the hype
*Sunday Post*

Yetis in Frostheart, a gloriously imagined first novel by the
illustrator Jamie Littler.
