Sam Barone spent thirty years in the technology industry, retiring as VP of International Systems at Western Union International, before turning to fiction writing full-time in Scottsdale, Arizona. A Marine Corps veteran originally from Queens, New York, he brought his interest in military history and strategy to his debut novel Dawn of Empire (2006).
His primary body of work is the Eskkar Saga, a six-novel series spanning over a million words that follows the barbarian warrior Eskkar and his wife Trella as they defend a small village against nomadic raiders and build the first walled city in the Fertile Crescent around 3158 BC. The saga has been published in nine languages. Barone also wrote two companion novellas in the Eskkar & Bracca series, following Eskkar’s earlier adventures with a Sumerian thief named Bracca.
