Andy Marino was born and raised in upstate New York. He spent his childhood orchestrating Lego pirate battles, drawing detailed maps of imaginary video games, and cheating death in Choose Your Own Adventure books. Profoundly influenced by the work of J.R.R. Tolkien and the movie Bloodsport, he started writing his first novel at the age of eleven. Tragically, THE RUNES OF ILLIARM was never completed.
In sixth grade, he won a spelling bee and qualified for regionals one step away from the National Spelling Bee in Washington DC. Thoughts of ESPN cameras and fawning groupies clouded his mind, and he misspelled the word malediction.
During his teen years, Andy designed sets for school plays and became an expert stockpiler of unfinished art projects. After graduating from NYU with a bachelors degree in English, he played guitar in the bands Sayonara and SleepCrime, and got serious about writing fiction.

A J Ryan
"A.J. Ryan charts a relentlessly inventive course to the dark heart of an extinction-level event. Soaked in terror and shrouded in fog, this book demands to be gulped down in one sitting. It's Apocalypse Now ripped from its moorings, transfigured for a time when the apocalypse is, literally, now."
