Mark Anthony Tierno
A full-time writer with a Masters in Physics, the soul of a poet, and possessed of a unique descriptive voice. The result is an unrivaled talent for the creation of alien vistas, deeply woven plots, characters with distinctive personalities, and dynamic and realistic dialogue. Tierno knows how to put emotions on paper, to draw the reader in and feel the highs and the lows, to cry tears of joy or sadness as if there in the story yourself. He has built entire worlds, their cultures, everything planned down to the smallest detail; even the most fantastic of worlds are still consistent within their own laws, the better to make it seem as real as the Earth upon which we live. Yet all this is but backdrop, the stage to set for incredible plots, and shape the story into something that will draw you in with the force of a black hole.
Additionally, Tierno loves crossing genres. High fantasy with some Sci-Fi elements mixed in for one series, cyberpunk with magical realism and high-level conspiracies for another, even one series that blends steampunk with a world of intelligent insects (he calls it "bee-punk"). Let other people write the pure genres, he just loves mixing it up.
Describing Mark Anthony Tierno as a full-time writer is probably understating things a bit. 8 to 10 hour session writing well over 12,000 words in a single day is not uncommon. Between the detailed planning and sheer imagination, Mr. Tierno has never known writer's block, nor yet seen the limit of his creativity.
But what really sets him apart is the epic saga, for 'epic' is where he starts from. With works that include a
single series that stretches over a dozen books long, 5 million words, and over a couple hundred characters all skillfully juggled, it is not an exaggeration to say that Mark Anthony Tierno goes well beyond what would normally be considered as 'epic'. He goes beyond epic because he loves the thrill and excitement that comes from the crafting and reading of a grand saga, of creating a world with such detail that one can get lost within it because here is a world that just might really exist… somewhere.
