Larry Correia
Larry Correia is an American fantasy novelist, known for his ''Monster Hunter'' and ''Grimnoir Chronicles'' series. He was formerly an accountant, a concealed carry permit instructor, and a part-owner in a gun store and shooting range. He attracted a large amount of media attention in 2014 and 2015 due to the Sad Puppies campaign to nominate works, including his own, that he believed were more popular but often unfairly passed over by Hugo Award voters in favor of more literary works or stories with progressive political themes.
==Career==
Correia's first novel, ''Monster Hunter International'', despite being self-published, reached the ''Entertainment Weekly'' bestseller list in April 2008, after which he received a publishing contract with Baen Books. ''Monster Hunter International'' was re-released in 2009 and was on the ''Locus'' bestseller list in November 2009. The sequel, ''Monster Hunter Vendetta'', was a ''New York Times'' bestseller. The third book in the series, ''Monster Hunter Alpha'', was released in July 2011 and was also a ''New York Times'' bestseller. Correia was a finalist for the John W. Campbell award for best new science fiction/fantasy writer of 2011. ''Warbound'', the third book in Correia's ''The Grimnoir Chronicles'' series, received a nomination for the Hugo Award for Best Novel in 2014.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=2014 Hugo Awards )〕 ''Monster Hunter Nemesis'' was chosen as a finalist for the Hugo Award for Best Novel in 2015, but Correia declined the nomination.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 The Nominees Announced and Why I Refused My Nomination )〕
The ''Dead Six'' series started as an online action fiction collaboration with Mike Kupari (Nightcrawler) at the online gun forum "The High Road" as the "Welcome Back Mr Nightcrawler" series of posts. These works predated the publishing of ''Monster Hunter International'' through Baen.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Reservist, best-selling author team up for action-thriller )〕
