Peter Danielson

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Peter Danielson is the pen name used by the authors of a series of 19 books published by Bantam Books between 1980 and 1995.[1] The series, called Children of the Lion, is loosely based on Old Testament Biblical events.

The original "Peter Danielson" and creator of the series was George Warren.[2][3] He wrote volumes #1 through #14. #15 was by Franklin King; Hugh Zachary took over the series with the next book and wrote #16, #17, and #18. The final book #19 was written by James Reasoner.[4] During his run as the series' author Warren communicated with Robert Heinlein, who gave him writing advice.[5] Cover art for nine of the books were created by Sanjulián.[6]
