Whether it’s monsters lurking in the dark or forbidden magic changing the course of history, Correia brings his readers along for a wild, unrelenting ride.

Born in the heart of the United States, Larry was a fan of genre fiction from a young age, developing a particular love for action-oriented fantasy and science fiction. He found his voice early, crafting stories that allowed him to mix his lifelong love of thrilling narratives with his fascination for alternate worlds.

He burst onto the literary scene with his Monster Hunter International series, a perfect showcase of his ability to write characters that are both tough and relatable, while throwing them into extraordinary, often absurd situations. The series captivated readers with its mix of humor, gunfire, and monster-slaying action—everything a fan of urban fantasy could want, and more.

Larry’s works often explore themes of duty, honor, and the grey areas of morality. His protagonists aren’t flawless heroes, but people driven by a sense of justice and a relentless desire to protect those who can’t protect themselves. This combination of realism and fantastical elements makes his work stand out in a genre full of larger-than-life characters. His books don’t just offer action—they delve into the personal stakes of those who find themselves in extraordinary circumstances, giving readers a chance to connect with characters in ways that feel visceral and honest.

Beyond his Monster Hunter International series, Larry has also worked in the Grimnoir Chronicles and The Saga of the Forgotten Warrior series, further solidifying his place as a go-to author for fans of urban fantasy and science fiction.

Whether he’s writing about a team of misfits fighting to save the world from supernatural threats or exploring darker, more nuanced themes of power and corruption, Larry’s books are known for one thing: they never let up. They pull readers into fast-paced worlds where danger lurks at every turn, and the only way out is to fight like hell.

For Larry, writing is a chance to create worlds where readers can escape into action and adventure, while also getting a glimpse of what it takes to survive the battles that aren’t always so clear-cut. It’s a journey that’s just as thrilling as it is thought-provoking—one that keeps readers coming back for more.
