about this author
Scott is a prolific writer of novels and short stories, for adults and children, in a variety of genres. His first three books were a culmination of many years traveling through all parts of Ireland, during which work as a dealer in antique and rare books brought him into contact with a huge body of Irish myths and legends, some of which were near-forgotten and had only ever been passed down verbally. Thus began Scott's life-long fascination with the world's many different mythologies.

"You spend your whole life trying to get people to like you and then you run over one person with your car - not even one of the popular ones - and everybody gets on your case. Doesn't make any sense."
