Laurell K. Hamilton      

NY Times Bestselling Author of the "Anita Blake: Vampire Hunter" Series & "Merry Gentry" Series of Paranormal Thrillers

Laurell Hamilton is the author of the #1 New York Times bestselling "Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter" series and the "Merry Gentry, Fey Detective" series. "A Terrible Fall of Angels," the first novel in an exciting new series, features Detective Zaniel Havelock in a world where angels and demons walk amount us.

With more than forty novels published, Hamilton continues to create groundbreaking fiction inspired by her lifelong love of monster movies, ghost stories, mythology, folklore, and things that go bump in the night. Her love of the macabre, books in general, animals, and nature led her to degrees in English and biology. She is a non practicing biologist but uses her science to add an extra level of realism to her fiction.

She currently lives in St. Louis with her family, two spoiled Japanese chins, a house panther, and a house Lion. In her free time, Hamilton trains in Filipino martial arts with a specialization in blade work, and travels to scuba dive and bird watch as often as she can.
