John L. Campbell was born in
Chicago, and attended college in North Carolina and New York. His jobs
have included limousine driver, bouncer, store detective and
investigator. Campbell studied Kendo, and is a professionally-trained
interrogator.
His short fiction has appeared in numerous anthologies, literary magazines and online ezines.
Campbell's first book, Red Circus: A Dark Collection, assembled 21 tales of horror and suspense, and was followed by a second, larger collection of
terror, In the Falling Light. Campbell's novella, The Mangroves, is
based on actual events, and chronicles a WWII Japanese regiment which
marched into the most horrific crocodile massacre in recorded history.
Now, Campbell tears apart San Francisco in the apocalyptic first book of his new zombie series, Omega Days.
Coming soon, the historical, horror/thriller, A Judge from Salem, and the sequel to Omega Days, Ship of the Dead.
