Mark Lawrence (born January 1, 1968) is a novelist of dual nationality (American and British), best known for his The Broken Empire trilogy of books. In 2014, Lawrence won the David Gemmell Legend Awards for best novel for Emperor of Thorns.
Biography
Mark Lawrence was born on January 1, 1968, in the United States. While he was still young, his parents moved to the United Kingdom. He is married and has four children, one of whom is severely disabled. He works as a novelist and was a research scientist in the field of artificial intelligence. He has held secret level clearance with both US and UK governments, and at one point he was qualified to say "this isn't rocket science ... oh wait, it actually is."
Reception
Lawrence’s first work, Prince of Thorns, was published by Ace / Voyager in August 2011 and was a finalist in the Goodreads Choice Award for "Best Fantasy 2011", a David Gemmell Morningstar Award Finalist in 2012 and short listed for the Prix Imaginales (Roman étranger) in 2013. Prince of Thorns was also one of Barnes & Noble's "Best Fantasy Releases of 2011".
Lawrence began his career at Fourth Division side Hartlepool United, who were forced to apply for re-election to the Football League in the 1977–78 campaign. Billy Horner's "Pools" rose to 13th place in 1978–79, before dropping back down to 19th in 1979–80. They rose up to ninth place in 1980–81, then posted 14th and 22nd-place finishes in 1981–82 and 1982–83. Lawrence was loaned out to John McGrath's Port Vale in March 1983. He played eleven games, helping the "Valiants" to finish third and gain promotion from the Fourth Division in 1982–83. He left Vale Park and returned to Victoria Park in May. Hartlepool had to apply for re-election once again after finishing second-from-bottom in 1983–84; Lawrence then left Hartlepool and joined non-league Whitby Town.
