Rob Thurman Rob Thurman is currently writing three series for Penguin Putnam’s imprint ROC FANTASY: The CAL LEANDROS Novels, The TRICKSTER Novels, and the CHIMERA Novels. Her first book, NIGHTLIFE, was released in 2006. She has written eight books to date and is releasing two more in 2011. She has also written for a Charlaine Harris Anthology, WOLFSBANE AND MISTLETOE. Although she does not write Young Adult, her first Urban Fantasy book in The CAL LEANDROS Series—NIGHTLIFE—has received a 2011 Eliot Rosewater Award Nomination for Excellence in High School Libraries—rather to her bemusement as she’d be the first to say her books are not for younger teens. Apparently, the librarians and teens disagree! Rob’s work is dark, non-stop action from beginning to end, rife with purely evil sarcasm as sharp as a switchblade—and probably nearly as illegal. If one shoved LORD OF THE RINGS, THE SHINING, and PULP FICTION into a wood-chipper, the result would be what Rob aims to deliver in her Science Fiction, Suspense-Thriller and Urban Fantasy novels.
“Rob Thurman’s new series has all the great
elements I come to expect from this writer.” Rob’s main protagonists in two of her series are written in a male perspective. With all of Rob’s books so full of “Heart” and “Angst” — Romance Readers will rediscover how love can come in all forms! A member of the SFWA, ROB THURMAN lives in RURAL Indiana—land of endless fields, infinite cows and where dial-up is still the only soul-crushing option. |
