Pete Draper

Pete Draper is a working-class author from Yorkshire, England, writing adult grimdark fantasy set in the fictional world of the Merged Seas.

A world of shifting territories, endless wars and competing empires, the Merged Seas is a place where colonial powers wield advanced technology against the unpredictable forces of magic. Here, ambition, conquest and survival collide in a dark and unforgiving world where borders are never permanent and peace is rarely more than a brief pause between conflicts.

All of Pete's books are set within this shared gaslamp fantasy universe.
