Best-selling author of over 100 children's books, translated into 28 different languages, Saviour Pirotta's writing focuses on historical fiction, fantasy, and retellings of myths and legends for a young audience. Alongside books, he has taken his passion for storytelling to the stage, writing a theatre show that sold out the world-famous Stephen Joseph Theatre in Scarborough.

Having lived across the UK and abroad, Pirotta now resides in the small market town of Driffield in the East Riding of Yorkshire, where he enjoys spending time with his cat, collecting vintage china, cooking, travelling, and having afternoon tea.
