Claire North a écrit son premier roman alors qu'elle n'avait que quatorze ans. Comparée depuis à Terry Pratchett et Philip Pullman, la jeune femme a publié de nombreux ouvrages de genres différents. Londonienne de souche, Claire se décrit comme fan de grandes villes, de magie urbaine, de nourriture thaï et de graffitis. Dans sa trilogie « Le Chant des déesses », elle met en scène l'histoire de Pénélope, la célèbre femme d'Ulysse, comme elle n'a jamais été contée auparavant.
