More About the Author

New York Times best-selling novelist Scott Sigler is the author of NOCTURNAL, ANCESTOR, INFECTED and CONTAGIOUS, hardcover thrillers from Crown Publishing; and the co-founder of Dark Øverlord Media, which publishes his Galactic Football League series (THE ROOKIE, THE STARTER, THE ALL-PRO and THE MVP).

Before he was published, Scott built a large online following by giving away his self-recorded audiobooks as free, serialized podcasts. His loyal fans, who named themselves "Junkies," have downloaded over eight million individual episodes of his stories and interact daily with Scott and each other in the social media space.

Scott reinvented book publishing when he released EARTHCORE as the world's first "podcast-only" novel. Released in twenty weekly episodes, EARTHCORE harkened back to the days of serialized radio fiction. His innovative use of technology puts him at the forefront of modern-day publishing and has garnered brand-name exposure among hundreds of thousands of fiction fans and technology buffs.

He's been covered in Time Magazine, the Washington Post, the New York Times, the San Francisco Chronicle, Entertainment Weekly, Publisher's Weekly, The Huffington Post, Business Week and Fangoria. He still records his own audiobooks and gives away every story - for free - to his Junkies at www.ScottSigler.com.

A Michigan native, Scott lives in San Francisco with his wife and dog.

5.0 out of 5 stars Science and Horror, June 4, 2011
This review is from: Ancestor: A Novel [Hardcover]
Sigler's Ancestor had me from the first chapter - I love a blend of science and horror, and this guy knows how to create realistic scenes from unrealistic scenarios (or are they?). All the characters, had their own strengths, weaknesses, and in some cases pronounced paranoias - and that made them all the more interesting. I cared about Colding and Sara, and Jian and the subplots of the emotional entanglement, frictions and gut-level hate he created to add in a dash of psychological drama was very enjoyable.

I wont add in spoilers, but the scenes where the experiments 'go wrong', are magnificent in the extreme! This book reminded me of some of Greig Beck's works in its blending of horrifying concepts, military hardware, and downright terror.

5 Stars - Loved it. Now, to get his other books!
