About Roman Prokofiev

Roman Prokofiev is a bestselling Russian author who writes in the LitRPG, gamelit, and cyberpunk genres. Roman started writing at an early age, inspired by fantasy authors including J. R. R. Tolkien, Robert Jordan, and Glen Cook. These days, he can't remember what he did with those first tentative drafts-and in any case, they couldn't have been that brilliant, because Roman moved on, focusing on his studies, starting a family, and running his own business.

Still, he always remained a passionate gamer and a voracious reader of fantasy. That's why the LitRPG genre struck a chord with him: Roman couldn't help comparing his early writing to the bestselling works in the genre, until one day he decided to try his hand at LitRPG too.

Back in Russia, his very first books immediately became popular with readers, topping book charts, and were promptly released in paperback and audio by Russia's leading traditional publishers.

Roman loves nothing better than to come up with an exciting story. So, if you prefer heroes who wander off the beaten track to face breakneck adventures in original and well-crafted worlds, Roman's books offer you a chance to indulge.
