Author S. M. Dunning

S. M. Dunning—a lifelong devotee of myths, faerie tales, and epic adventures—taught young adult and fantasy literature as a college and university professor of English for many years. His imagination was initially stimulated and then shaped by the Oxford Inklings. He has a PhD in English Literature from Cambridge University, which he attended as a Commonwealth Scholar.

Suzy and the Magic Turnip is the first volume of a series about Suzy, her turnip, and the strange and dangerous worlds she and her friends encounter together. The second volume, Suzy and the City of the Plain, is in the early stages of publication, while the third, Suzy and the Time of Changes, is now complete in draft form and will follow shortly thereafter.

 

It is rumoured that he also writes stories about trolls. If this is true, it's no one's fault but his grandchildren's.
