Author: Carlos Vila

Carlos Vila Sexto

When he was only 14 years old, he won the first prize of "Narraciones Juveniles Rúa Nova" literary contest, with his novel Alén da aventura which was published by Galaxia in 1992. He won the same prize the next year with the horror fable Gárgola. By the time he was 18 years old, he had already published three novels.

From that time up to now, he has been working as screenwritter for some of the most important spanish TV series: Motivos Personales (Telecinco), Presunto culpable (Antena 3), El incidente (Antena 3), Acusados (second season, Telecinco) and Círculo Rojo (Antena 3).

Recently he has became famous as author of Los misterios de Laura (RTVE), the first spanish TV show ever to be adapted in the USA: THE MYSTERIES OF LAURA (Warner, NBC).

In 2009 he writes in galician language The seven deaths (Galaxia, 2009) winning the prize "Fray Martín Sarmiento" for the best YA novel of 2011 in Galicia, which already is in its 4th edition, and that came out in Catalan language on September 2014 and in Spanish in October 2014.

His latest work, Las Crónicas del Viajante, is a trilogy where each volume belongs to three different genres (suspense, horror and adventure), as we follow his main character's strange journey to solve the most unexpected mystery. The first installment of the trilogy, El Pasajero 19, has just been awarded with the prize "Fray Martín Sarmiento" for the best YA novel of 2020 in Galicia.

He is specialized in YA and crossover novels, full of rhythm, authentic page-turners, based in his screenplayer experience.
