Biography

Rob studied Egyptology at university, but never thought he’d do much with it. Since joining Usborne in 2005, he’s written loads of books about Ancient Egypt, and on topics ranging from space to the story of Islam. He is also the author of several award-winning historical adventure novels, and a hopeless cook.
