Keith R.A. DeCandido (www.DeCandido.net) is the USA Today and Locus bestselling author of more than sixty novels, more than one hundred works of short fiction, more than seventy comic books, and more nonfiction than he’s comfortable counting. His work in the media tie-in field has earned him a Lifetime Achievement Award from the International Association of Media Tie-in Writers and covered more than thirty different licensed universes, including TV shows (Star Trek: The Klingon Art of War, Supernatural: Nevermore), movies (Alien: Isolation, Cars: Rust Bucket Derby), games (Resident Evil: Infinite Darkness—The Beginning, World of Warcraft: Cycle of Hatred), comic books (Spider-Man: Down These Mean Streets, Thor: Dueling with Giants), and literary characters (Sherlock Holmes: Cases by Candlelight, Joe Ledger: Unstoppable). In addition, Keith has written extensively in worlds of his own creation, including other fantastical police procedurals in the fictional locales of Cliff’s End (Dragon Precinct and its sequels, the latest of which is Phoenix Precinct) and Super City (a novel and several shorter works featuring the Super City Police Department) and urban fantasy in New York City (the Adventures of Bram Gold, including A Furnace Sealed and Feat of Clay) and Key West (two short-story collections starring Cassie Zukav, weirdness magnet). He also writes about pop culture for a variety of places, most prolifically on the awardwinning web site Reactor Magazine (formerly Tor.com). A veteran editor and anthologist, Keith recently co-edited Double Trouble: An Anthology of Two-Fisted Team-Ups (with Jonathan Maberry) and The Four ???? of the Apocalypse (with Wrenn Simms). Keith is also a professional musician (currently with the parody band, Boogie Knights), a dedicated New York Yankee fan (he sometimes does editorial work for the Society of American Baseball Research), and a fourth-degree black belt in karate (he not only trains, but regularly teaches children and adults). He lives in the Bronx with his wife and two unusually friendly black cats.
