No other author has received as many German Fantasy Awards as him, which is why he is quite rightly regarded the grandmaster of German fantasy. With his bestselling “Dwarf”- series he made his mark in classic fantasy, but he also took the Urban Fantasy-scene by storm with his werewolf- and vampirethrillers. Markus Heitz lives in Homburg.
