James A. Hunter Hey all, my name is James Hunter and I'm the bestselling author of the Yancy Lazarus Series and the litRPG epic Viridian Gate Online. So just a little about me: I'm a former Marine Corps Sergeant, combat veteran, and pirate hunter (seriously). I'm also a member of The Royal Order of the Shellback--'cause that's a real thing. I've also been a missionary and international aid worker in Bangkok, Thailand. And, a space-ship captain, can't forget that. Okay ... the last one is only in my imagination. Currently, I'm a stay at home Dad--taking care of my two kids--while also writing full time, making up absurd stories that I hope people will continue to buy. When I'm not working, writing, or spending time with family, I occasionally eat and sleep. Aaron CrashAaron Crash writes adrenaline-fueled odysseys into the extreme regions of speculative fiction.
