Lindsay Galvin

 In her books I love the fact that in her books humans and animals (many fictional) can always live together in harmony but it may take a bit of persuasion and you need to keep going and not give up. She also tries to keep her books as historically accurate but with a few dragons thrown into the wild and wacky mix.

Books Written:

Darwin’s Dragons; My friend the octopus; The secret deep; A discovery of dragons; Call of the Titanic; Magnet man and me; Greek sports.

Birth:

Unknown

She was born into a family full of stories and reading. She worked as a scuba diver but changed to writing and got married. She has 2 sons and loves reading, running or doing yoga.

Fun Facts:

She has a degree in English Language and Literature and she is fascinated by psychology and the natural world. She didn’t write fiction since childhood but she had an idea and she never let go.
