English both by name and nationality, Charlotte hasn't permitted emigration to the Netherlands to change her essential Britishness (much). She writes colourful fantasy novels over copious quantities of tea, and rarely misses an opportunity to apologise for something. Spanning the spectrum from light to dark, her works include the Draykon Series, Modern Magick, The Malykant Mysteries and the Tales of Aylfenhame. A collection of old-fashioned Wonder Tales, full of wit, whimsy and enchantment.
