Josiah Bancroft started writing novels when he was twelve and by the time he finished his first, he was an addict. Eventually, the writing of Senlin Ascends began, a fantasy adventure not so unlike the stories that got him addicted to words in the first place. He wanted to do for others what his favourite writers had done for him: namely to pick them up and carry them to a wonderful and perilous world that is spinning very fast. If he's done that with this book, then he's happy. Josiah lives in Philadelphia with his wife, Sharon and their two rabbits, Mabel and Chaplin.

Reviews for The Hod King (#3 Babel)

It's rare to find a modern book that feels like a timeless classic. I'm wildly in love with this book Like its predecessor it is a brilliant piece of work . . . these two books are genius. I just love them. The story, characters and imagination shine An extraordinary debut that is well worthy of the hype. A beautifully written, highly engaging page-turning masterpiece An impressive display of imagination and humour . . . we have no reservations about recommending it
