Author Bio

Lincoln Peirce is a New York Times bestselling author and cartoonist. His comic strip Big Nate appears in over 400 newspapers worldwide. It later was adapted into a bestselling series for young readers that has sold over twenty million books. Nickelodeon has created an animated series based on the character.
The Max and the Midknights series originated as a spoof of sword and sorcery tales. Lincoln later rewrote the story with a new and memorable protagonist: Max, a ten-year-old apprentice troubadour who dreams of becoming a knight. Each Max & the Midknights book is supported by hundreds of dynamic illustrations employing the language of comics. Of the lively visual format that has become his trademark, Lincoln says, I try to write the sorts of books I would have loved reading when I was a kid. Max & the Midknights has now been adapted into an animated series by Nickelodeon.
When he is not writing or drawing, Lincoln enjoys playing ice hockey, doing crossword puzzles, and hosting a weekly radio show devoted to vintage country music. He and his wife, Jessica, have two children and live in Portland, Maine.
