Fantasy author Daniel Dickinson creates the Xonthian Saga, where magic is outlawed, heroes fall before they rise, and humanity proves that even in the bleakest fight for survival, people can topple Kingdoms. Dickinson’s short story collections are perfect for fantasy lovers who enjoy intricate worldbuilding, dark fantasy themes, and character-driven fantasy that explore personal tragedy and triumph. An avid gamer himself, his work is also ideal for gamers who enjoy reading about epic quests, rich lore, and morally complex characters.

Daniel Dickinson’s writing first appeared in an annual publication with his short story “Escape from Ogre Island.” He has self-published two other stories, Gathering Tide and Aggression Factor, with the newly released Ember of War, published by Fedowar Press. He is a frequent contributor to the Arizona Authors Association’s quarterly newsletter, as well as a member of its board. He recently became the owner of TigerEye Press.

At the age of ten, he began creating the realistic realm of Xonthian, in which his characters come to life, allowing the reader to become a part of that diverse world. Xonthian continues to evolve. The heroes Tiger and Bree begin their sagas alone until circumstances bring them together. Future projects include a unique, Western-style tale set in the world of Xonthian, as well as a novel featuring the titular heroes, Tiger & Bree.

Daniel’s stories draw from his love of mythology, history, and late-night gaming sessions, crafting Xonthian’s sprawling cities and wild frontiers with a nerdy passion for detail. He’s always jotting down ideas inspired by Arizona’s deserts or old folk tales, making his worlds feel alive. As a board member, he mentors local writers, hosting workshops where he shares tips on building believable settings. Owning TigerEye Press lets him spotlight new talent, a role he relishes.

A proud father with a beautiful wife, Daniel enjoys traveling, photography, food, and art. One of his many hobbies is taking his daughter and grandkids camping at least twice a year. He’s happiest on these trips, telling stories by the campfire or snapping photos of saguaro sunsets, which often spark his next Xonthian tale.
