Thomas K. Carpenter has been publishing fantasy and science fiction since 2010, building up a catalog of over eighty books across fifteen series. His work ranges from historical fantasy set in ancient Alexandria to LitRPG adventures in virtual worlds to urban fantasy in modern magical universities. He writes at a fast pace and has built several interconnected fictional worlds that reward long-term readers.
The Hundred Halls universe is his most ambitious project, with the original six-book series spawning multiple spin-offs — Gamemakers Online, Order of Merlin, Stone Singers, The Crystal Halls, Reluctant Assassin, and Aura Healers Hall — all set in a world where magical education takes place in competing halls. Outside that universe, the Alexandrian Saga reimagines ancient Alexandria with fantasy elements, and the Dashkova Memoirs blends Russian history with revolutionary magic. His standalone work includes the Digital Sea trilogy and the Gamers series, which explores gaming culture through a speculative lens.
