      About The Author

      Allan Cole is a best-selling author, screenwriter and former prize-winning newsman who brings a rich background in travel and personal experience to his imaginative work.

      Son of a CIA operative, Cole was raised in the Middle East, Europe, and the Far East. He attended thirty-two schools and visited or lived in as many countries. He recalls hearing Othello for the first time as a child sitting on an ancient fortress wall in Cyprus - the island Shakespeare had in mind when he wrote the play.

      Rejecting invitations to join the CIA, Cole became an award-winning investigative reporter and editor who dealt with everything from landmark murder cases to thieving government officials.

      Since that time he’s concentrated on books and screenplays. His novels include the landmark science fiction series, "Sten," which he coauthored with the late Chris Bunch, have sold upwards of 25 million books worldwide and have been published in 13 languages, and "The Timura Trilogy." His latest books include "The Hate Parallax," which he wrote with Russian fantasy master, Nick Perumov, "Lucky In Cyprus," as well as "MacGregor," and "Drowned Hopes," thrillers set in Boca Raton, Florida. "Parallax" is the first and only novel written by American and Russian collaborators.

      Allan has sold more than a hundred and fifty television dramas, ranging from "Quincy" and "The Rockford Files" to and "Walker, Texas Ranger." He lives in Boca Raton, Florida, with his wife, Kathryn.

      Here’s what critics have said about Cole’s other works: Lucky In Cyprus: A haunting, humbling, and sobering experience ; - J. A. Kaszuba Locke, Bookloons; A Reckoning For Kings: Classic war novel - San Francisco Chronicle; The Timura Trilogy: Page turner of the year - Locus Magazine; The Sten Adventures: Landmark science fiction series – Publishers Weekly; A Cop’s Life: Must-read for anyone with a badge – Philadelphia Fraternal Order Of Police
