Darren Shan Biografía y Hechos

Darren O'Shaughnessy , (nacido el 2 de julio de 1972 en Londres, Reino Unido[1]​) es un autor que habitualmente escribe y es conocido bajo el nombre literario de Darren Shan, [2]​ es un escritor de nacionalidad irlandesa y autor de La saga de Darren Shan.[3]​ Biografía Darren O'Shaughnessy nació en 1972 en el hospital de St. Thomas en Londres. Actualmente vive en Pallaskenry, en el condado de Limerick, Irlanda con su novia Bas. A los tres años asistió a la escuela en Londres. Cuando tenía seis años se trasladó con sus padres y su hermano pequeño a Limerick, donde ha vivido desde entonces. Recibió su educación primaria en Askeaton y asistió al instituto en Copsewood College, Pallaskenry. Regresó a Londres para estudiar Sociología y Filología Inglesa en la Roehampton University. Carrera Darren trabajó para una compañía de televisión en Limerick durante dos años de decidir convertirse en un escritor a tiempo completo. Compró su primera máquina de escribir cuando tenía 14 años y escribió muchos relatos cortos, guiones de cómic y libros que nunca terminó. Su primer éxito le llegó a los 15 con un concurso de guiones televisivos para Radio Telefís Éireann en Irlanda, con una comedia macabra titulada A Day in the Morgue. Terminó su primera novela a los 17 años. Mute Pursuit nunca fue publicada, pero le encantó la experiencia de escribir así que comenzó a concentrarse en las novelas más que en los relatos cortos. Todas las primeras obras de Darren estaban orientadas a un público adulto. Pensó que escribir libros para niños sería una buena idea para el futuro pero el público adulto era su principal enfoque. Sus comienzos llegaron con Ayuamarca, escrita bajo su nombre real y no su nombre literario. Fue publicado en febrero de 1999 por Orion Publishing Group, pero no tuvo buenas ventas. Su secuela, Hell's Horizon, publicada en febrero del 2000 recibió una crítica mejor, pero vendió menos que el primer libro. Ayuamarca fue reeditado en marzo del año 2008 bajo el título de Procession of the Dead y bajo el nombre literario D.B. Shan. Hell's Horizon fue reeditado en marzo de 2009 y el tercero de la trilogía, City of the Snakes está previsto que se publicará en el Reino Unido en marzo del año 2010. Intereses Darren Shan posee miles de películas y colecciona obras de arte. Disfruta leyendo libros y cómics, paseando, mirando el fútbol (es seguidor del Tottenham Hotspur F.C. y el equipo nacional de Irlanda), escuchar música pop y rock y viajar por el mundo.

Darren Shan había planeado escribir 18-24 libros de la saga, y la mitad de ellos tendría lugar en un futuro devastado y apocalíptico que aparece mostrado en el libro 10, The Lake of Souls. Por razones que explica en su página web, Darren Shan decidió terminar la saga con Sons of Destiny, que fue escrito y publicado en lugar The Cannibal King. Nunca ha hablado mucho de este libro pues existe la posibilidad de que algún día continúe la saga, que tomaría este libro como punto de inicio.
