Biography

Isobelle Carmody was born in Wangaratta on 16 June 1958, the eldest of eight children.[1] She began work on Obernewtyn Chronicles at the age of fourteen. This was soon after the death of her father in a traffic accident.[1] She continued to work on them while completing a Bachelor of Arts, majoring in literature and philosophy; she worked in public relations and journalism.

The Stone Key, book five of the Obernewtyn Chronicles, was released in February 2008. The Sending, book six of that series, was officially released on 31 October 2011.[2] The seventh and final book, The Red Queen, was released in November 2015.

She was Guest of Honour at the 2007 Australian National Science Fiction Convention, Convergence 2, held in Melbourne in June 2007.

Personal

Her partner is Jan Stolba, a Czech musician and poet.[1] She currently divides her time between her home on the Great Ocean Road in Victoria, and her travels abroad with her partner and daughter, spending a year each in her two residences.
