Tommy Donbavand is the award-winning author of over 100 books for young readers, including the 13 book 'Scream Street' series, now adapted as a stop-motion animated TV show for the BBC, and many other channels around the world. Tommy has recently added to the 'Scream Street' library with the novelisation of eight of those TV episodes over four books. He has also written numerous books for reluctant and struggling readers, such as 'Home', 'Ward 13', 'My Teacher Ate My Brain' and 'Princess Frog-Snogger'. The 'Tommy Donbavand's Funny Shorts' series features such rib-tickling adventures as 'My Granny Bit My Bum', 'Dinner Ladies of Doooooom!', and 'There's a Time Portal In My Pants'. A fan of sci-fi, Tommy was commissioned to write the Doctor Who novel, 'Shroud of Sorrow', which was published in 2013 to help celebrate the 50th anniversary of the TV show. He also wrote many stories and comic strips for 'Doctor Who Adventures' magazine. In comics, he writes the weekly Bananaman strip and - when let loose - the 'Bash Street Kids' adventures - in the 'Beano', as well as a monthly science themed comic for 'Whizz Pop Bang!' In 2016, Tommy was diagnosed with inoperable, stage four throat cancer and underwent intensive courses of both chemotherapy and radiotherapy. He has now been cancer-free for a year, and has charted his battle against the disease in a new book, 'Tommy V Cancer'. Keen to devise more involved sci-fi and urban fantasy books for older readers, Tommy is now writing indie adventures for the Kindle under the pen name, 'Tom Dublin'. He lives in Lancashire, England with his wife, two sons, and a seemingly endless stream of pets.
