Author Information

Multi award-winning and bestselling author John Marsden has sold millions of books worldwide, and won every major award in Australia for young people's fiction.

He has written more than 40 books, including So Much to Tell You and Letters from the Inside, which span a range of genres and audiences.

John’s legendary ‘The Tomorrow Series’, called ‘the best series for Australian teens of all time’, has sold into multiple territories and was adapted into a highly successful movie and a major TV series.

His historical novel for adults, South of Darkness, won the Christina Stead Award for Best Novel of 2015.

His two adult, non-fiction titles, The Art of Growing Up and Take Risks, explore his fascinating life and his absorbing, profound insights into teaching, parenting and society today.
