Michelle Paver (born 1960) is a British novelist and children's writer, known for the fantasy series ''Chronicles of Ancient Darkness'', set in pre-agricultural Stone Age Europe.

== Biography ==
Michelle Paver was born in Nyasaland (now Malawi) in central Africa. Her mother was Belgian (Flemish) and her South African father ran a newspaper, the ''Nyasaland Times''. Her family settled in Wimbledon, England when she was three. She was educated at The Study and
Wimbledon High School. After reading biochemistry at Lady Margaret Hall, University of Oxford, where she attained a first-class degree, she became a partner in a City of London law firm.
Her father's death in 1996 prompted her to take a one-year sabbatical, during which she travelled around France and America and wrote her first book, ''Without Charity''. She resigned from legal practice soon after her return, to concentrate on writing. Her 2010 ghost novel ''Dark Matter'' was nominated for a Shirley Jackson Award for best novel.
