Nick Perumov is a well known Russian fantasy and science fiction author. He was one of the pioneers of genre fantasy in Russia, and became famous after writing an unauthorized sequel to The Lord of the Rings; however, afterwards he used his newfound controversial fame to sell his own brand of fantasy. Although most of his works is fantasy, he also wrote the sci-fi duology Empire Is Above All.

Works written by Nick Perumov include:

• Ring Of Darkness (1993-1995) is what made him (in)famous: an unauthorized sequel trilogy to The Lord of the Rings, featuring bellicose hobbits, mysteriously surviving Nazgul rings and generally mangled Tolkien canon. Let's leave it at that.

• Chronicles Of Hjorvard (1995-ongoing) is his first series set in The Consistent multiverse. This series of non-connected novels tells the story of Hedin and Rakot, two True Mages who defeated the evil-ish Young Gods and set themselves as chief deities of the multiverse, and various other heroes from the world of Hjorvard. A final novel in this series is now being written, intended as a Grand Finale for the entire Consistent cycle.

• Keeper Of The Swords, also known as Chronicles of the Rift (1998-2006) is the second and most well known epic novel series set in The Consistent multiverse. It tells the story of Fess, mage, assassin and, most famously, necromancer, his travels over two worlds, quest to recover his memories and his ultimate battle to save both of these worlds from several malevolent deities. Several non-Fess-centric novels are also included in this series.

• Empire Is Above All (2002-2004) is a Science Fiction duology set in an interstellar Fourth Reich which is invaded by mysterious alien "Biomorphs". The hero, Ruslan Fateev, fights to free his Russian-speaking planet New Crimea from the empire and discover the truth behind the alien invasion.

• Seven Beasts Of Raileg(2007-ongoing) is Perumov's new fantasy series, unconnected to his old Consistent multiverse.
