We grew up with video games, comics, science fiction books and anime films. We are passionate about this project –Children of the Phoenix are the books that we would have absolutely loved as kids. Now as parents, with a considerable amount of works behind us, we still cherish that sense of wonder. We want to share that feeling, and this abounding universe that we have created, with readers everywhere.
/Oskar Källner and Karl Johnsson
Oskar Källner is an author with a fervent devotion to all things related to science fiction. That passion was kindled when he as a young boy discovered Jules Verne and read absolutely everything by him in the city public library. Later he continued with, Isaac Asimov, Robert A. Heinlein, Arthur C. Clarke and C.J. Cherryh to mention some. Oskar has won several short story competitions and has a body of work consisting of novels, short stories and children’s books. He’s been published in several languages, recently in the American SF-magazine Future SF.
