Maz Evans writes the kind of books that make children laugh out loud and stay up past bedtime. She is best known for Who Let the Gods Out?, a fast-moving adventure series in which a boy named Elliot discovers that Greek gods have taken up residence on a Dartmoor farm. The series ran to four main books between 2014 and 2019 and built a loyal readership for its broad comedy and genuine emotional heart.
Her other series show the same energy in different settings. The Exploding Life of Scarlett Fife follows a girl navigating family chaos and big feelings, while Vi Spy is a spy comedy featuring a teenage girl whose whole family turns out to be in the secret service. The Gods Squad series brought Egyptian and Maya mythologies into the mix, starting in 2023. Alongside her series work, Evans has written standalone novels and illustrated children’s books, making her one of the more prolific British children’s authors of her generation.
