Author Biographies

Timothy Ferguson is a librarian from the Gold Coast in Australia, who dedicates his writing to his wife Linda. He'd like to mention Final Boss, by MC Frontalot, as being important in the writing of "The Queen of Gold and Glass."

Andrew Gronosky is a software engineer by day; in his secret double life he is an Ars Magica storyguide, sometime author, and the maintainer of Project: Redcap. He lives in Cambridge, Massachusetts with his wife Vesna and two magical cats.

Mark Lawford lives in Eastbourne on England's sunshine coast, from where he thinks up ways to expand the Ars Magica canon while helping others make use of it in their own sagas, something made all the more important now that his old gang of nine years has disbanded. For one final time, he would like to dedicated this book to Simon, Mark, Alex, and Dave.

Richard Love thanks his grooving partner, Paula, and wishes that everybody would just get along without so much antagonism. What would be the harm in that?

Ben McFarland lives in the wilds of Upstate New York, where he continues to venture into mysterious regios in search of adventure with the priceless support of his wonderful wife, Mandy, his family, and the excellent advice of his steadfast friend, James.

Mark Shirley is a computational biologist who lives and works in the North East of England. He first played Ars Magica in 1991, and Bishop Orris was the first antagonist he introduced to the Malinbois saga. Since then, the Vidua Vasta saga has suffered the depredations of the Waimie and the schemes of Hannelore. Mark would like to thank those who have had to put up with these antagonists for doing so, and for making them more interesting individuals than they were originally intended.
