Craig Halloran has built an extensive catalog of fantasy novels since publishing his first book, Wrath of the Royals, in 2009. He writes primarily in the sword and sorcery and epic fantasy genres, with dragons featuring prominently across many of his series. His work spans from the gritty Darkslayer books to the lighter Supernatural Bounty Hunter Files, giving him a broad range within speculative fiction.
His most expansive project is Dragon Wars, a 21-book series published between 2020 and 2021. He also created an interconnected world with the Chronicles of Dragon, Tail of the Dragon, and the Lost Chronicles of Dragon, which together tell the story of Nath Dragon across 25 books. For readers who prefer something different, his Impact trilogy offers zombie fiction, while The Gamma Earth Cycle moves into science fiction territory.
