About the author

Boban Knežević je jedan od najistaknutijih domaćih pisaca fantastične proze. Krajem sedamdesetih godina prošlog veka započeo je spisateljsku karijeru klasičnim hard SF pričama u žanrovski specijalizovanim časopisima, pre svega Siriusu i Galaksiji, da bi taj period kulminirao romanom Smrt na Neptunu u X-100 ediciji. Krajem osamdesetih okrenuo se domaćim tematikama i nekoj vrsti mešavina žanrova, pa slede: roman Crni cvet (1993, reprintovan pet puta u Srbiji i u USA - Black Blossom, 2004), roman Čovek koji je ubio leptira (1996) i zbirka priča “Slutnja androida” (2003) kojom je zaokružio taj početni period stvaralaštva sakupivši praktično sve kraće radove nastale u XX veku. Zatim slede romani Poslednji srbin/Živosahranjeni (2009), Slobodanida (2014), kratki roman Vampirijada (2017) i roman Paganin (2020). Autor je (zajedno sa Vladimirom Zavadovskim) Lavkraftijane, enciklopedijskog leksikona pojmova vezanih za Lavkrafta (2020). Pored spisateljskog rada, Knežević se bavio i uredničkim i izdavačkim poslom i od 1981. godine do sada potpisuje više od 300 raznih izdanja, almanaha, zbirki, časopisa i knjiga.

Born in 1959 in Belgrade, Boban Knežević, is a writer, editor, publisher and graphic novels writer.

He's been active in the Yugoslavian literary scene ever since 1978, when his first science fiction story was published. This was followed by over forty other stories and novelettes in various magazines and anthologies, as well as four novels: Death on Neptune (1986), The Black Blossom (1993, 2000, 2003, 2008), The Man Who Killed A Butterfly (1996) and The Last Serb (2009). In Triffides (2001), a three-author anthology, he participated with three novelettes. His new story collection Android's Premonition (2002) marks 25 years of his writing.
In the beginning of the 1980s a number of his comics were published in magazines of Former Yugoslavia.
As an editor, he made his greatest impact through Dark Vilayet (1988, 1992, 1993, 1996), a series of four voluminous anthologies of Yugoslav authors, as well as the Anthology of Alternative Serbian Fantasy (1994). Many Yugoslav authors have had their debut and subsequently reached prominence in two Knežević-edited magazine, Alef (1986-1991) and Znak Sagite (1993-2020). He also brought out from his Znak Sagite imprint, between 1988 and 2020, thirty books of Yugoslavian authors.
