Todd Johnson McCaffrey wrote his first science-fiction story when he was twelve and has been writing on and off ever since.  Including the New York Times Bestselling Dragon's Fire, he has written eight books in the Pern universe both solo and in collaboration with his mother, Anne McCaffrey; appeared in many anthologies, most recently with his short story, "Robin Redbreast" in When the Villain Returns (August 2012), and the mini-anthology The One Tree of Luna (And Other Stories).

He has just released his science-thriller, City of Angels, and is revising The Steam Walker, an alternate history steam world where Bonnie Prince Charlie captures London and restores the Stuarts to the thrones of England and Scotland.

He is also editing a collection of essays, Dragonwriter: A Tribute to Anne McCaffrey and Pern, which is due to be published by Benbella in time for Dragon*Con 2013.
