Cassandra Clare

Cassandra Clare

Cassandra Clare is the name behind some of the most beloved and thrilling fantasy novels of the 21st century. Her Shadowhunter Chronicles—a series set in a shadowy, magical world where demons, angels, and other creatures lurk just beneath the surface of our own—has captured the hearts of readers worldwide. Known for her immersive world-building, complex characters, and heart-pounding action, Clare's books are a portal to a universe where danger and romance intertwine, and where the stakes are always life or death.

Born in 1973 in Tehran, Iran, Clare’s early life was marked by travel, as her family moved frequently due to her father’s job. This nomadic childhood, spanning cities from Switzerland to France to England, gave Clare a unique perspective on the world and a deep love for storytelling. It was in these years of constant change that her passion for writing took root. Inspired by the many different cultures and myths she encountered, Clare began crafting stories that drew on everything from ancient legends to modern-day struggles, blending the fantastical with the deeply human.
