Julian Michael Carver is an American author who made his debut in 2019 with A Raptor Ate My Homework!, the first book in his children’s series The Backpack Dinosaur. A Scribe Award-nominated writer and member of the International Association of Media Tie-in Writers (IAMTW), Carver has built a career around his clear love of prehistoric creatures. His work spans from lighthearted kids’ fiction to darker creature feature horror published through Severed Press.
On the children’s side, The Backpack Dinosaur series follows a kid who ends up with a pet raptor, leading to funny situations at school and summer camp. His adult novels take a very different tone. Triassic, his debut adult novel published through Severed Press in 2020, puts characters up against ancient predators, while MEGACROC is a horror-tinged survival story set in the Florida Everglades. His 2024 novel Primeval: New World ties into the popular Primeval franchise as a media tie-in.
