  • James Rollins is one of the pen names of American veterinarian Jim Czajkowski (born 1961), author of bestselling fantasy and action-packed adventure-thrillers such as Subterranean (1999), Excavation (2000), Deep Fathom (2001), Amazonia (2002), Ice Hunt (2003), Sandstorm (2004), Map of Bones (2005), Black Order (2006), The Judas Strain (2007), and The Last Oracle (2008). He sold his veterinary practice in Sacramento, California, to concentrate full-time on writing. Rollins is an amateur spelunker and a certified scuba diver. These pastimes provide much fodder for his novels, which are often set in underground or underwater locales. Among those who have inspired him, Rollins cites the authors of the Doc Savage series. As a youth, Rollins had acquired an extensive collection of Doc Savage novels, but, he says, he remained oblivious to their influence on him as a novelist until one of his fans brought this matter to his attention. Under the pen name James Clemens, Rollins also writes fantasy novels including Wit'ch Fire, Wit'ch Storm, Wit'ch War, Wit'ch Gate, Wit'ch Star, Shadowfall (2005), and Hinterland (2006) . In 2007, he was hired by Lucasarts to write the novelization of the script for the movie Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. (en)

  • James Rollins (pseudonimo di Jim Czajkowski), scrittore statunitense, nato a Chicago (Illinois) nel 1961. Ha frequentato la University of Missouri nel 1985. Per anni è stato un apprezzato veterinario, ma, a un certo punto della sua vita, ha deciso di anteporre al lavoro le sue tre grandi passioni: la speleologia, le immersioni subacquee e, soprattutto, la scrittura. Fin dal suo esordio, si è segnalato come una delle voci più nuove e convincenti nel campo del romanzo d'avventura, raggiungendo un notevole successo di pubblico e di critica. Rollins ha anche scritto alcuni libri sotto lo pseudonimo di James Clemens. Attualmente vive a Sacramento. Il Publishers Weekly scrive che Rollins trasmette il meglio di Clive Cussler, Robert Ludlum e Dan Brown, in più ha scritto che «Se a Cussler si dovesse assegnare la medaglia d'oro nella narrativa a Rollins bisognerebbe dare quella d'argento».
