Cornelia Funke is a storyteller and illustrator. Her stories have traversed the world -- told and retold in the most common as well as the rarest of languages. She is German, resides in Los Angeles, and lives in each of the worlds that she explores with her readers. She is the author of a profusion of books including: The InkWorld trilogy: Inkheart, Inkspell, and Inkdeath, Dragon Rider, The Thief Lord, and The Reckless (aka MirrorWorld) series: Reckless, Fearless, and The Golden Yarn. Oliver Latsch trained as a biologist before being lured away from science and reason by Cornelia Funke, who asked him to translate and take her books to English speaking audiences, which turned out to be the most reasonable thing he ever did.
