Daniel Abraham

Daniel Abraham is an accomplished American author, born in November 1969, who has made a significant impact in the realms of science fiction, fantasy, and horror novels. He is a prolific writer who often uses various pseudonyms to differentiate between the distinct genres he writes. Living in Albuquerque, New Mexico, with his wife Katherine and daughter Scarlet, Abraham's life is as fascinating as his writings.

When writing under his real name, Daniel Abraham, he focuses on epic fantasies set in other worlds. His notable works include The Dagger and the Coin series and The Long Price Quartet series. These series have garnered much attention and praise, earning him nominations for prestigious awards such as the Hugo, Nebula, and World Fantasy awards. Furthermore, Abraham has won the International Horror Guild award, showcasing his versatility and mastery across various genres.

In addition to his works as Daniel Abraham, he also writes under the pen names M.L.N. Hanover and James S.A. Corey. As M.L.N. Hanover, he explores urban fantasies that are set in worlds similar to our own. This allows him to delve into a different kind of mysticism and magic, one that intertwines with the everyday lives of ordinary people. On the other hand, when writing as James S.A. Corey, he collaborates with Ty Franck to create space opera novels set in the far-off future. This pseudonym is used exclusively for their collaborative works, including the renowned The Expanse series.

Abraham's writing career is not limited to novels, as he has also ventured into comic books, screenwriting, and television production. He has worked with fellow New Mexico resident George R.R. Martin on several projects, including adapting Martin's books, The Game of Thrones series and the novel Fevre Dream, into graphic novels. This collaboration with Martin has been an essential aspect of Abraham's growth as a writer and has undoubtedly contributed to his success in the literary world.
