Toronto, Ontario, Canada
I'm an illustrator, writer and broadcaster based in Toronto. I write lots of novel. Mucus Mayhem is part of a series called The Almost Epic Squad. The MINRS trilogy is a space adventure story. My other series, The Neil Flambé capers has 6 books. Neil Flambé and the Duel in the Desert the latest. Neil Flambe and the Marco Polo Murders won the 2011 Silver Birch award for Fiction. I also write and illustrate picture books. Gargantua Jr: Defender of Earth is out in 2019 I also have Super Duper Monster Viewer and Splinters. I illustrated GREAT, a book with the Wayne Gretzky Foundation. I also do lots of non-fiction. Follow Your Stuff, Follow Your Money, Basketballogy, Baseballogy, Game Day and more. I've also been a broadcaster with CBC Radio in Canada for years and years (although I'm originally from Western New York... GO SABRES AND GO BILLS!) Take a look at some of the work I've done for clients and myself. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments. Just type in… sylvesterartwork at gmail dot com.

The Neil Flambé Capers are wowing the critics!

Praise for the Neil Flambé Capers

Book 3 "...is a funny book, chock full of action, slapstick, puns and eccentrics. Fans of the first two will eat it up." -Kirkus Reviews

“Good fun.” – Gordon Ramsay

"over-the-top fun" - Booklist

“Amusing… Readers will wish they could sample his Pommes de terre a la Flambé.” – Publishers Weekly



**** Highly Recommended. “A giggle from beginning to end”

– CM Magazine



Recommended – “Makes the reader look forward to the next book in the series.” – Canadian Children’s Booknews



Recommended - “Easily as entertaining as Ratatouille” - Canadian Living





“Charming.” – The Edmonton Journal



“Neil Flambé and the Marco Polo Murders is a delightful read. You learn a lot about the foods found along the Silk Road, but the history slides down easily with the story. Kevin Sylvester has done a great job.” – bookshigal.com



“Any adult who picks it up will find chuckles and belly laughs on every page.” - thebusypeppermill.com



“Super Cute” – Everexpandinglibrary.com

Three other books due out in Fall 2010.

Splinters (Tundra). Cindy Winters wants to play hockey. The Blister Sisters won't let her. Can her fairy goaltender help save the day?

Game Day (Annick). Who are the people behind the scenes who make sporting events work? I interview everyone from the Famous Chicken to Nicole Sherry, the head groundskeeper at Camden Yards.

Don't Touch that Toad! (Kids Can). I've done the illustrations for a book of true and false (and definitely weird) stories that parents tell their kids.
