Alex C. Telander is a writer, book reviewer, and interviewer.  He’s been seriously writing for about fifteen years, starting when he was a teenager.  He has finished three novels: a young adult fantasy (which he will self-publish in 2012), a mystery/thriller which he is shopping around to agents, and a post-apocalyptic science fiction novel he recently finished, the first in a four-book series.  He has self-published two short story collections: "Unquiet Slumbers for the Sleepers" and "In That Quiet Earth," both available for free through Smashwords.  He has also self-published a YA fantasy novel, "Kyra: The First Book of Enchantus," available through Smashwords and in print edition through Amazon.

He is currently working on a big historical fiction epic set in fifth century Britain. Alex is also a reading addict, finishing an average of 90 books in the last three years, and reviews just about everything he finishes. In addition to reviewing for the San Francisco Book Review and Sacramento Book Review, he puts all his reviews up on his website, BookBanter (www.bookbanter.net).

BookBanter began as a dream that became a reality: you can now find over fifty exclusive interviews on the site, both audio and written, as well as over 600 book reviews. Alex also records audiobooks for Librivox (www.librivox.org), a full listing of which you can find on the BookBanter site (http://www.bookbanter.net/librivox.html). On BookBanter you can also find the BookBanter Column (http://www.bookbanter.net/bookbantercolumn.html) (as well as on the San Francisco Book Review) and the BookBanter Blog (http://bookbanter.wordpress.com/). In his spare time – when he’s not writing or reading – he likes to hang out with friends and family, watch incessant amounts of genre TV, and play the MMO Lord of the Rings Online.
