Michael Stephen Fuchs is the author of the acclaimed cyber-thrillers The Manuscript and Pandora's Sisters, both published in hardback, paperback, and e-book worldwide by Macmillan; the short story collection Don't Shoot Me In The Ass, And Other Stories; and the high-concept, high-tech special operations military action series D-Boys. He is represented by Robert Gottlieb, Chairman of Trident Media Group in New York. He lives in London and blogs at michaelfuchs.org.

Fuchs's new novel, D-Boys, is the first in a series of high-concept, high-tech special operations military action novels. When Islamist terrorists use a massively-multiplayer online video game (or "virtual world") as a platform for unconventional weapons attacks, the world's most elite counter-terrorist operators must fight them in the unforgiving mountains, on the high seas, in gritty urban wastelands – and in a whole new battlespace online.
