Andrew Tanner is the bestselling author of Bringing Ragnarok, the epic saga of six unlikely heroes forced to confront the Death of all Worlds.

* * *

I grew up in rural northern California, graduated from UC Berkeley then served in the army. Went on to work jobs in the private and public sectors before diving into academia, earning a couple of graduate degrees while publishing research and teaching undergrads.

Bailed on my doctoral program in 2017 to write speculative science fiction and never looked back. The six-book Bringing Ragnarok saga is now complete, and I'm hard at work on my next project: Bivrost Nine.

I live with my badass wife, two cats, and a black lab who *thinks* he's a cat in the western Willamette Valley.

Several lines in, editing mode usually kicks in, and a usable phrase, maybe a whole sentence results.

If that doesn't kick start something, then I'll write snarky comments in the voice of a character, about nothing in particular.(less)
