A former studio musician and carpenter, James Luceno has been writing professionally for twenty years.  His early novels were action tales based on his experiences as a guide for an adventure-travel company.  A Fearful Symmetry, his first foray into science-fiction, was a finalist for the Philip K. Dick award.  Collaborating with the late-Brian Daley, Jim wrote scripts for several animated television series, and under the pseudonym "Jack Mckinney," he and Daley adapted the anime series, Robotech.  Since 2000, Jim has worked almost exclusively in the STAR WARS universe, contributing six novels to the franchise, all of which have made the NY Times best-seller lists.  He has also written novelizations of Mission: Impossible, The Shadow, and Indiana Jones.  He lives in Annapolis, Maryland with his wife and son.
