Mike Oliveri is a writer, martial artist, motorcyclist, and family man, though not necessarily in that order. He writes primarily in the crime, horror and thriller genres and his work has appeared in several comics, anthologies, and magazines. His Bram Stoker Award-winning first novel Deadliest of the Species was reprinted by Evileye Books this year, and his novel Lie with the Dead, the sequel to Winter Kill, will be published in October.
