From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Margo Lanagan (born 5 June 1960) in Waratah, New South Wales is an Australian writer of short stories and young adult fiction.

Many of her books, including YA fiction, were only published in Australia. Recently, several of her books have attracted worldwide attention. Her short story collection Black Juice (ISBN 0-06-074392-1) won two World Fantasy Awards. It was published in Australia by Allen & Unwin in 2004, and in North America by HarperCollins in 2005.
