Cassandra Clare (real name Judith Lewis, née Rumelt, born July 27, 1973) is a prominent [[YoungAdult YA author]], best known for her fantasy franchise ''Franchise/TheShadowhunterChronicles'', as well as being a writer of short fiction. She is also known for her earlier works of [[FanFic fanfiction]]; she was a FandomVIP in the ''Literature/HarryPotter'' {{fandom}}, under the very similar name [[SameFaceDifferentName Cassandra Claire]].

In October 2023, her New Adult book (named such because its target audience is roughly 18-30 year olds, those older than Young Adult audiences but whom might not quite relate to standard adult fiction), ''Literature/TheSwordCatcher'', was published. Its sequel ''The Ragpicker King'' is set to be released in 2025.
