Måns Gahrton

Född 1961 i Lund, uppvuxen i Stockholm och bor i Nacka utanför Stockholm. Måns Gahrton är mycket produktiv som författare. Han tecknade sin första serie som femåring och skrev sin första bok när han var sex. Han fortsatte skriva berättelser under hela sin uppväxt, men det var första när han träffade illustratören Johan Unenge (vid den tiden reklamtecknare), som han vågade gå till ett förlag.

"Vi träffades på en fest för tjugo år sedan. Jag ville göra serier, men kunde inte rita, Johan kunde rita, men inte skriva. ’Jag hittar på och du ritar’, föreslog jag fram på småtimmarna, och dan därpå träffades vi och satte igång med vår första figur, som vi döpte till Agent Annorlunda."

Tim Lebbon

I love writing, reading, triathlon, real ale, chocolate, good movies, occasional bad movies, and cake.

I was born in London in 1969, lived in Devon until I was eight, and the next twenty years were spent in Newport. My wife Tracey and I then did a Good Thing and moved back to the country, and we now live in the little village of Goytre in Monmouthshire with our kids Ellie and Daniel. And our dog, Blu, who is the size of a donkey.

I love the countryside ... I do a lot of running and cycling, and live in the best part of the world for that.

I've had loads of books published in the UK, USA, and around the world, including novels, novellas, and collections. I write horror, fantasy, and now thrillers, and I've been writing as a living for over 8

Alan Dean Foster

Bestselling science fiction writer Alan Dean Foster was born in New York City in 1946, but raised mainly in California. He received a B.A. in Political Science from UCLA in 1968, and a M.F.A. in 1969. Foster lives in Arizona with his wife, but he enjoys traveling because it gives him opportunities to meet new people and explore new places and cultures. This interest is carried over to his writing, but with a twist: the new places encountered in his books are likely to be on another planet, and the people may belong to an alien race.

Foster began his career as an author when a letter he sent to Arkham Collection was purchased by the editor and published in the magazine in 1968. His first novel, The Tar-Aiym Krang, introduced the Humanx Common

He has also published several pieces of original work, such as Heroes Die, which Stover described as 'a piece of violent entertainment that is a meditation on violent entertainment'. Stover's work often emphasises moral ambiguity, psychological verisimilitude and bursts of intense violence.

Stover is deeply interested in various forms of martial arts, having trained in the Degerberg Blend, a concept that utilises the thought behind Bruce Lee's Jeet Kune Do as its foundation.
