Carlos Ferreira

Carlos Ferreira is a Portuguese author with a fascination for history, mythology, technology, and the strange places where they intersect.

A lifelong geek with a fondness for dragons, complicated questions, and the occasional glass of good whisky, he has a habit of following interesting ideas much further than originally intended.

Born of Fire, the first novel in the Draconian Blood series, began with a joke about a modern-day Dungeons & Dragons campaign over whisky. Nine years, countless revisions, and a rather extensive collection of interconnected notes later, the joke had become a saga.

His stories explore the meeting points between ancient history and the modern world, where gods have to contend with contemporary life, magic has consequences, and even immortality comes with complications.
