About the Author/作者介绍: James Phelan was born on the 21st of May, 1979, in Melbourne, Australia. His creative spirit was nurtured from a young age, and he credits his overactive imagination to being exposed to such works as The Hobbit, Treasure Island, The Jungle Book, and The Little Prince.
As a teenager James discovered a love of thrillers, of being entertained and informed on topical global events. James cites influences on the Fox series from reading such authors as Alistair MacLean, Clive Cussler, Jeffery Archer, Ken Follett, Tom Clancy, Jack Higgins, Robert Ludlum, John le Carre, and Jeffery Deaver.
In 1995, aged fifteen, James started his first novel for his VCE English assignment. A thriller involving a terrorist attack on the 2000 Sydney Olympics, James eventually abandoned the storyline when Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six was published in 1998. While this storyline died, the lead protagonists of Lachlan Fox and Alister Gammaldi did not, and James went in search of another introductory tale.
After high school James went on to study in Architecture, and then English Literature, eventually graduating with a Master of Arts in Writing. It was during his masters degree and while working at The Age newspaper James developed the idea that would become his first published book, and would lead to seeing his novels in print.
James Phelan出生於墨爾本,從小極具創作天賦,並對驚悚小說產生了濃厚的興趣。1995年,十五歲的James開始著手創作他的第一部驚悚小說,虛構了2000年悉尼奧運會遭到恐怖襲擊的故事,然而美國暢銷小說作家Tom Clancy在1998年出版了Rainbow Six(彩虹六號),書中內容與James的設想多處相似,於是他放棄了這個構想,另起思路。
James在大學裏開始進修建築學及英國文學,並獲得藝術寫作碩士學位。大學畢業後,他曾在The Age newspaper工作,James的第一部出版作品也在此期間成形。
