John Bellairs is beloved as a master of Gothic young adult novels
and fantasies. His series about the adventures of Lewis Barnavelt
and his uncle Jonathan, which includes The House with a Clock
in Its Walls, is a classic. He also wrote a series of novels
featuring the character Johnny Dixon. Among the titles in that
series are The Curse of the Blue Figurine; The Mummy, the
Will, and the Crypt; and The Spell of the Sorcerer’s
Skull. His stand-alone novel The Face in the Frost is
also regarded as a fantasy classic, and among his earlier works
are St. Fidgeta and Other Parodies and The Pedant
and the Shuffly.
Bellairs was a prolific writer, publishing more than a dozen novels
before his untimely death in 1991.
