Welcome to the website of Louise Cooper.
Louise Cooper: May 29, 1952 - October 21, 2009
It is with great sadness that we have to inform you that on October 29th 2009 Louise passed away suddenly after she suffered an aneurysm.
She will be enormously missed and was loved by many. We can take small solace that her memory will live on through her wonderful, inspiring work.
Our thoughts and prayers go to Cas, her husband, at this sad time.

TWO NEW TITLES FROM MUNDANIA!
To start the New Year in fine style, Mundania Press have published two full-length Louise Cooper fantasies.
STAR ASCENDANT
Book 1 of the Star Shadow trilogy, the prequel to Time Master. It takes
readers back to an age when Chaos rules supreme through the medium of their
half-human avatars, the Magi, and tells the story of a group of 'heretics'
who are determined to bring the exiled lords of Order back to the world�no matter what the cost. You'll meet and tells the story of a young militia captain who finds his loyalties being challenged by the rise of a new and terrifying regime.

...and a particular welcome, and grateful thanks, to web host Mark Wilson of Pensandpencilsandpens, who has designed and created this definitive introduction to my fantasy and supernatural mystery fiction.
In the pages of the site you'll find details of all my in-print novels for both adults and younger readers (with excerpts from many of the titles), a Biography, a News page, an Archive, an Art section featuring some superb images inspired by my books, Links and, of course, a Message Board.
But there are also two new features, which I'm particularly excited about:
Louise's Journal.
For the first time I'll be writing a regular journal, with thoughts, snippets, insights, photos... anything that catches my imagination, in fact, and which I feel readers would like to share.
I hope you'll enjoy reading it as much as I'm going to enjoy putting it together.
Online Shop
As well as the Lord Of No Time eBook, my own imprint, 'Dancing Mackerel', will be publishing new titles in the future, along with maps, artwork and more. You can buy them direct-and in many cases exclusively-from this site.
So welcome-and I hope you'll enjoy your visit to my world of the strange and the magical and the intriguing...
