Howard Andrew Jones

Howard Andrew Jones ist ein amerikanischer Autor von spekulativer Fiktion und Fantasy, der vor allem für seine historischen Fantasy-Romane und Serien bekannt ist, darunter "The Chronicles of Hanuvar", "The Chronicles of Sword and Sand" und "The Ring-Sworn Trilogy". Sein Debütroman "The Desert of Souls" erhielt breite Anerkennung und erschien auf Kirkus' Liste der neuen und bemerkenswerten Bücher, Locus' Empfehlungsliste sowie Barnes & Nobles Liste der besten Fantasy-Veröffentlichungen von 2011. Der Roman war außerdem Finalist für den Compton Crook Award und eine ausgewählte Lektüre des Science Fiction Book Club. Die Fortsetzung "The Bones of the Old Ones" festigte seinen Ruf in diesem Genre weiter.

Neben seinen eigenen Werken hat Jones auch Beiträge zur "Pathfinder Tales"-Reihe geleistet, darunter "Plague of Shadows". Er ist zudem ein angesehener Herausgeber, der das Interesse an Harold Lambs historischer Fiktion neu belebt hat, indem er acht Bände von Lambs Kurzgeschichten für Bison Books zusammenstellte und bearbeitete. Als Herausgeber von "Tales from the Magician's Skull" und Managing Editor des Magazins "Black Gate" seit 2004 spielt Jones eine bedeutende Rolle bei der Förderung spekulativer Fiktion. Seine Schreibweise verbindet oft abenteuerliche Schwertkämpfe mit detailreichen historischen Settings, was seine Leidenschaft für verfluchte Türme und blitzende Klingen widerspiegelt.

Wenn er nicht schreibt oder redigiert, verbindet Jones seine kreativen Tätigkeiten mit Unterrichten und der Bewirtschaftung eines kleinen Familienbauernhofs. Sein beruflicher Hintergrund ist vielfältig und umfasst Tätigkeiten als TV-Kameramann, Buchredakteur, Recyclingberater und Dozent für kreatives Schreiben. Jones erweitert weiterhin sein literarisches Schaffen, arbeitet an neuen Teilen seiner etablierten Serien und bleibt in der Fantasy-Community aktiv präsent.
