Simone Cicali, classe '71, è un nerd da quando ancora questa parola era un'offesa e scrive da ancora prima, senza imporsi confini di tema o di stile, ma prediligendo fantascienza, fantastico e insolito. È innamorato di "Ai confini della realtà".

Sue le raccolte "Inaspettatamente", "Probabilmente" (Premio Ulthar 2023) e "Stranamente" (Premio La Chiave d'Argento 2024), il giallo "I gialli" e il romanzo fantastico "Ventitrè", collabora con il collettivo di autori Sodalizio Wordsmith, per il quale ha editato "L'ultima impresa delle Bande Nere", i volumi della serie "L'Assedio" e "Cinque metri sotto", e di cui cura il Patreon. ...more
