Rafael Ábalos (born on 12 October 1956) is a Spanish novelist recognized for his hit book Grimpow: The Invisible Road (2007), released by Random House. This fantasy tale is aimed at young readers and centers on a boy who finds a mysterious amulet in France, becoming involved in an age-old quest to bring enlightenment to humanity.
