About the Author


Ashok Kumar Singh was born in 17-11-1957 in north India in the town where George Orwell once lived as an infant. Ashok did his schooling in Mount Hermon School Darjeeling which is run by the Methodist church and is among'st the best mission schools in India. His ancestral village is just 7 miles from Mokameh ghat where Jim Corbett once worked as an officer in the Indian railways. Fifty miles to the north of where he lives is the town where Rudyard Kipling got the idea for his famous Jungle Book. And finally 50 miles to the south east of where he lives is the famous Barabar hills(Marabar hills in the book) which is the center point of the plot for E M Forster's 'A Passage To India.' Naturally Ashok enjoyed reading these books as they were stories about characters who once lived in his home area. So when he started writing stories, his story telling was greatly influenced by these legends. And folks he unashamedly created new stories by letting his pen flow according to what he felt these legends would have written if they were alive today. This gave birth to the'Great White Hunter,' series which reminds the reader of Jim Corbetts stories. Ashoks animal books for teen aged children and young adults will remind the reader of Kiplings works.
