Myke Cole

Myke Cole è un autore affermato di romanzi fantasy, noto soprattutto per la sua serie Shadow Ops. Nato a New York, negli Stati Uniti, attualmente risiede a Brooklyn. La sua carriera è stata varia e ampia, che comprende essere un contractor della sicurezza, un civile del governo, nonché un ufficiale militare. Questa diversa background ha influenzato in modo significativo la sua scrittura, con i suoi lavori letterari che riflettono le sue esperienze in contr terrorismo, cyber guerra e applicazione della legge federale.

L'esperienza militare di Cole e il suo lavoro per le agenzie di intelligence hanno fornito una fonte ricca di ispirazione per i suoi romanzi. Ha completato tre tour in Iraq ed è stato richiamato per servire durante lo sversamento di petrolio Deepwater Horizon. Le sue esperienze reali nella caccia a terroristi e criminali si sono riversate nello schermo piccolo, dove ha inseguito fuggitivi su CBS's show del 2017 Cacciati e UFOs su Discovery Channel's 2019 show Contact.

Nonostante l'impegno di Cole in situazioni ad alto conflitto, ha un lato più morbido, che è evidente nel suo amore per i romanzi fantasy, fumetti e partite notturne di Dungeons e Dragons. La sua scrittura è spesso piena di angoscia, che riflette la complessità dei suoi personaggi e i mondi intricati che crea. La background unico di Cole e la passione per il racconto hanno stabilito come un autore rispettato nel genere fantasy.
