David Talon grew up in and around Chicago, Illinois, joined the Marine Corps at 17 as an infantryman and later became a Corpsman in the Navy. He then went on to sell drugs for a living (as a retail pharmacist) before fleeing the corporate rat-race to spend his days writing stories.

Besides novels, he's had short stories published in various anthologies, written screenplays, has done occasional voice work, and produced a podcast based on an early novel.

He currently lives with his archeologist/librarian wife and various roof cats known as the 'Knots' (as in, you are not my cat) You can contact him at: davidtalon@bellsouth.net
