Biography

Born Leonard Paul Carpenter in Chicago, I've spent most of my life in California, with a boyhood year in West Texas and a 1973 bicycle excursion through Europe with my late wife Cheryl. Since her passing in 2014 I've traveled, worked on book projects and websites.

I've also created a movie script, THE LUSI, for my historical novel LUSITANIA LOST. This Lusitania spy thriller, to be released by Mango Publications in October 2017, portrays the final 1915 voyage of the doomed passenger liner with romance, intrigue and murder. Three years after Titanic's sinking, this wartime disaster surpassed it in terror and historical impact, setting America on the path to war. Apart from my fictional characters, the story depicts actual events aboard the doomed ship, on the U-boat that hunted it, and in the capitals and battlefields of war-torn Europe. LUSITANIA LOST will be available on Amazon.

Literally and literar-ily I am the most prolific author of Conan the Barbarian novels, in the great storytelling tradition of Robert E. Howard, 1906-1936. Channeling Conan, I raised and toppled empires, slew evil gods and tyrants, and sent an expedition to the realm of ice and fire at the headwaters of the legendary River Styx.

In addition to those dozen books, my novel BIOHACKER is available on Amazon Kindle. This near-future science fiction thriller addresses climate change, global population and computer intellect.
