Creator / Cassandra Clare

Cassandra Clare (real name Judith Lewis, née Rumelt, born July 27, 1973) is a prominent YA author, best known for her fantasy franchise The Shadowhunter Chronicles, as well as being a writer of short fiction. She is also known for her earlier works of fanfiction; she was a Fandom VIP in the Harry Potter fandom, under the very similar name Cassandra Claire.

In October 2023, her New Adult book (named such because its target audience is roughly 18-30 year olds, those older than Young Adult audiences but whom might not quite relate to standard adult fiction), The Sword Catcher, was published. Its sequel The Ragpicker King is set to be released in 2025.
